05:10:25 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20220506@050549 UTC
05:10:25 Imager readout modes:
05:10:25   0 is Fast
05:10:25   1 is Normal
05:10:25 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:10:25 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
05:10:25 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
05:10:25 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:10:30 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
05:10:30 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
05:10:30 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:10:30 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
