03:12:40 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:12:40 Imager is ASCOM
03:12:40 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:12:40 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20250123@031114 UTC
03:12:40 Imager readout modes:
03:12:40   0 is Fast
03:12:40   1 is Normal
03:12:40 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:12:40 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:12:40 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:12:40 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:12:40 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:12:47 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:12:47 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:12:47 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:12:47 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
