03:59:08 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:59:08 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20220510@035458 UTC
03:59:08 Imager readout modes:
03:59:08   0 is Fast
03:59:08   1 is Normal
03:59:08 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:59:08 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
03:59:08 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
03:59:08 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:59:13 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
03:59:13 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
03:59:13 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:59:13 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
