You are locked-out for two seconds after the first pulse ends.Try again and press the switch after three or four seconds (depending on how long your switch pulse is).In latest version you can set the lock-out time from a menu item.
In Stereo menu set camera position to 'R' (for 'right' camera).If synch is enable and a letter 'F' is displayed at the top you should be able to take a flash photo.Is 'F' displayed ?
Even after 20 seconds there is no response to a buttomn press on the remote.
the triac in your optoisolator, once optically opened, gets sufficient current to stay open
Quote from: whoever on 16 / November / 2009, 06:16:56the triac in your optoisolator, once optically opened, gets sufficient current to stay open Someone using a DIY triac-based flash-trigger mentioned a similar problem to me when using it with studio flash.The flash had to be turned-off before the trigger would work again.Any suggestions for modifying the trigger circuitry to avoid this problem ?
For the flash trigger project, I'd put a capacitor shunted with a resistor, say 0.5 uF and 100k, in series with the triac/thyristor.

From what you describe it seems that the triac in your optoisolator, once optically opened, gets sufficient current to stay open (you surely checked the output with a voltmeter?)
Let us take this step-by-step ...Connect camera to PC using the USB cable.A photo will be taken.After the two second time-out another photo will be take .. forever.Does that work ?
only sometimes, maybe one in three attempts
