Remote control for S100

Hello all,

I am trying to remotely use a Canon S100 with VP-system/CamRemote using the usb of the camera . I have installed CHDK in a SD with the remote control option active and a new script from Camremote,
http://vp-systems.eu/download/camremote.bas (selected and on the CHDK)
When I active the switch on the TX i can see some blinking on the green led of the camremote but no action on the S100, no pictures!!!

has anybody used the S100 remote with CHDK. Maybe S100 is not remote control supported with CHDK?

Please any ideas will be wellcome

Regards

Miguel

Did you enter CHDK's <ALT> mode and press the cameras shutter button to activate the script ?

I don't have that camera but it should be okay AFAIK.

Well, an SDM user is testing his camRemote script (for KAP) with a S100 and it is working fine.

So, CHDK should work.

So you see the script title "CAMremote" on the LCD screen bottom left.  Good.  That means you have loaded the script properly.

When you then press the camera's shutter button,  do you get a "Started" message in the text console window on the LCD screen.
