07:44:01 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:44:01 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250114@074009 UTC
07:44:01 Imager readout modes:
07:44:01   0 is Fast
07:44:01   1 is Normal
07:44:01 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:44:01 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:44:01 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:44:01 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:44:01 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:44:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:44:08 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:44:08 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:44:08 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
