04:26:02 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II

04:26:03 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:26:03 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240222@042435 UTC
04:26:03 Imager readout modes:
04:26:03   0 is Fast
04:26:03   1 is Normal
04:26:03 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:26:03 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:26:03 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:26:03 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:26:03 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:26:03 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:26:03 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
