4.1 Rilaxx Bażiku tax-Xatter

• Agħfas il- Buttuna ta' Rilaxx tax-Shutter halfway to autofocus.
• Agħfas il- Buttuna ta' Rilaxx tax-Shutter fully to take a single shot.
• For continuous shooting, press and hold the Buttuna ta' Rilaxx tax-Shutter, or press it fully and then slide the LOCK swiċċ.

4.2 Funzjonijiet tat-Tajmer

The transmitter's backlit LCD screen allows you to set various parameters:

• Self-Timer (DE): Set a delay before the first shot.
• Long Exposure (BU): Program exposure duration up to 99 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds in one-second increments. Ensure your camera is set to Bulb mode.
• Interval Shooting (INT): Set the time between consecutive shots.
• Number of Shots (N): Specify the number of photos to take, from 1 to 999, or set to infinite.

Example: 50 pictures, 10s exposure, 5s interval

Set the camera to Bulb mode. On the remote, set [BU] to 10s and [INT] to 15s. Then set [N] to 50 and press the [Ibda] button. The interval time (INT) includes the exposure time (BU), so 15s (INT) minus 10s (BU) results in a 5s real interval between pictures.

7. Issolvi l-Problemi (FAQ)

Q1: Why does the interval time (INT) need to be longer than the bulb time (BU)?

A: In the default programming of this remote, the interval time includes the exposure time. Therefore, the interval time must be greater than or equal to the bulb time. For example, if you want a 10-second exposure and a 5-second interval between exposures, you would set BU to 10s and INT to 15s (10s exposure + 5s interval).

Q2: Can this remote control video recording?

A: No, this remote control is designed for still photography functions and cannot control video recording.

Q3: Can I set the interval to daily?

A: No, the device does not have an independent time-of-day clock and cannot be set for daily intervals. However, you can set intervals from 1 second up to 99 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds.

Q4: Can one transmitter trigger multiple cameras simultaneously?

A: Yes, it is possible to use one transmitter to trigger multiple cameras. However, all receivers and the transmitter must be set to the same channel, and the shooting distance should be within 100 meters. You would need to acquire additional receivers for each camera.
