CAMremote-2A with radians

Hi people,
may I ask you for help one more time?
I purchased a CAMremote-2A for use with the radians and my 5DII/Nex5n.

I tried to program the CAMremote for both cameras, but failed to get it working.

For the 5DII

• I´ve connected the pan radian with the CAMremote on Channel 1.
• Using my Spectrum DX8, I have set the AUX2/GOV (3-way) switch to be Channel6 and AUX on the pan radian.
• In the CAMremote configuration software, I set Canon EOS-Series(beta) as Camera and chose for control mode "Manual switch (CH0=Shoot, CH1=Focus+, CH2=Focus-, CH3=Record)"

Now, when I connect the Canon5DII, it shoots continous pictures, no matter what switch I use on the DX8

For the Nex5n I have a different problem:

• I´ve connected the pan radian with the CAMremote on Channel 1.
• Using my Spectrum DX8, I have set the AUX2/GOV (3-way) switch to be Channel6 and AUX on the pan radian.
• In the CAMremote configuration software, I set Sony/Minolta/Konica with IR as Camera and chose for control mode "Manual RC receiver (CH0=Recording/Shoot)", but also tried "Manual switch (CH0=Shoot, CH1=Focus+, CH2=Focus-, CH3=Record)"
• I´ve set the camera to remote

Problem: it doesn´t do anything.

I hope you can help me, anybody willing to share their settings? The manual doesn´t seem to be too specific and also being not a native english speaker, it´s somewhat diffucult for me to understand the technical terms.

As always: any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Wolfgang

 

hahaha, the last time I looked I was a very very cool, smart and handsome guy who spoke English like a native speaker and didn´t have to ask any questions in a public forum, but rather answered all of them within fractions of a second.

Thanks a lot for your offer Andy, I´ll mail you my questions.

 

Hi Philipp,
thanks a big lot for the link. Those switch settings are weird. Did you find them by try and error?
I need to check that hopefully tomorrow.
Great finding and info, thanks again!
