04:55:36 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:55:36 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240328@045311 UTC
04:55:36 Imager readout modes:
04:55:36   0 is Fast
04:55:36   1 is Normal
04:55:36 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:55:36 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:55:36 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:55:36 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:55:36 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:55:36 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
