05:58:09 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:58:09 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220421@055624 UTC
05:58:09 Imager readout modes:
05:58:09   0 is Fast

05:58:09 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:58:09 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
05:58:09 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
05:58:09 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:58:14 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
