08:16:52 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:16:52 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230228@081544 UTC
08:16:52 Imager readout modes:
08:16:52   0 is Fast
08:16:52   1 is Normal
08:16:52 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:16:52 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:16:52 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:16:52 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:16:52 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
