OK.
I don't think button #8 is meant to do anything in the script.
You have to run the script in order to respond to your controller buttons.
It is only 'accidental' that when you are not in ALT mode some of the buttons will trigger the camera.
Let us start with buttons #5 and #6.
Do they zoom in and out ?
FreeFlow
This has never zoomed with anything I did before your help or with your help.
Microfunguy
Does it respond at all to 5 and 6, is a message printed ?
FreeFlow
Pushing Button #5 many times shows 20,17,19,18,20,18,17... and so on
Pushing Button #6 many times shows 26,26,25,23,25,26,24.. and so on

In the script, put a rem and space before the line beginning :-
if a<2 then gosub ...
so that it starts like this :-
rem if a<2 then gosub
On the next line, put this :-
if a<21 then gosub "zin" else if a<27 then gosub "zout"
Run the script and tests buttons 5 and 6
FreeFlow
When I open script with NotePAD and UN word wrap ((if a<2 then gosub ...)) is a VERY long row. I'm not sure where the next line to insert...
On the next line, put this :-
if a<21 then gosub "zin" else if a<27 then gosub "zout"
Microfunguy
I agree, it is long.
Just delete it.
Select it by starting with the cursor on the left and dragging to the right until you reach the end of the line.

I think i got it. I rem'd it out and added a new fresh line with that new code. now i get....
holding the #5 button it shows zoomin: 17, then 18, the 18 ,15,17,18,18,19 etc...
holding the #6 button it shows zoomin: 24,24,26,26,16,26,26,24,24,23 etc...
FreeFlow
Keep in mind that the camera lens or what it sees does NOT move in or out. just shows them numbers on the viewfinder
Microfunguy
Change to :-
if a<3 then gosub "shoot" else if a<21 then gosub "zin" else if a<27 then gosub "zout"
and test button 7.
FreeFlow
okay, it is shooting a photo plus it is shows shoot: 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 by pressing #7 button
I will make sure I have the code right since the other code did not physically move the camera lens unless this is right.
Microfunguy
When you press button 8 AND 7, what is the value of 'a' ?
FreeFlow
does NOT show anything or do anything
FreeFlow
The CAMremote-2's LED;s do blink the flash some kind of pattern
Microfunguy
It says "Combined or Alternate function: Hold down 6 sec to
change profile and then choose new profile by pressing
on profile number 1-7"
So, press #8 for six seconds first.
FreeFlow
I just turned the camera DIAL to movie and it does turn on the video [REC] now
FreeFlow
now with the DIAL rotated to MOVIE #7 turns on [REC] and press again and it stops [REC]
Microfunguy
You are not meant to turn the dial to Movie.
Please do the test I requested.
FreeFlow
I'm sorry I have it back on TV mode. I was just trying things. #7 is doing a good job of focus/shoot on each press of #7.
