07:57:03 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20201011@023521 UTC
07:57:03 Imager readout modes:
07:57:03   0 is Image Quality
07:57:03 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:57:03 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
07:57:03 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:57:03 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:57:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
