09:00:43 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20220417@085707 UTC
09:00:44 Imager readout modes:
09:00:44   0 is Fast

09:00:44 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
09:00:44 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
09:00:44 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:00:49 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
