12:58:32 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:58:32 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250124@125704 UTC
12:58:32 Imager readout modes:
12:58:32   0 is Fast
12:58:32   1 is Normal
12:58:32 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:58:32 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
12:58:32 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:58:32 Guider is set to multi-star mode
12:58:32 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:58:40 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
12:58:40 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
12:58:40 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:58:40 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
