02:24:19 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:24:19 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20250206@022134 UTC
02:24:19 Imager readout modes:
02:24:19   0 is Fast
02:24:19   1 is Normal
02:24:19 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:24:19 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:24:19 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:24:19 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:24:19 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:24:27 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:24:27 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:24:27 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:24:27 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
