05:42:56 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:42:56 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220417@054008 UTC
05:42:56 Imager readout modes:
05:42:56   0 is Fast
05:42:56   1 is Normal
05:42:56 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:42:56 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
05:42:56 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
05:42:56 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:43:01 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
