11:04:52 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:04:52 Selecting filter SU from previous ACP run at 20230203@105813 UTC
11:04:52 Imager readout modes:
11:04:52   0 is Fast
11:04:52   1 is Normal
11:04:52 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:04:52 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:04:52 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:04:52 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:04:52 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:04:52 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:04:52 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:04:52 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
