The TriggerBox has two command modes, Simple Mode and Sequence Mode.

Simple Mode

Simple mode allows the user to enable individual focus and shutter outputs and upon receipt of an "S" command will release the enabled outputs. 

Example Simple Mode six camera command string:

<set-up>
m0  (set box to Simple Mode)
s111111  (enable all shutter outputs)
f111111  (enable all focus outputs)


<each shot>
F1   (focus camera)
<wait camera response time value>  (allow camera to respond to half button press)
S    (release shutter)
F0   (release focus)

Sequence Mode

Sequence mode allows the user to specify up to eight stages. Each stage allows every output's shutter and focus line to be enabled as well as an assignable output delay. The default sequencer setting only has one sequence stage. The first stage is labelled zero. Up to seven subsequent stages can be added using the command "P".  


A shutter release command will cause the sequencer to advance to the next stage. 


A select stage command "jx" allows the sequencer to be started from stage x.


Example Sequence Mode command string:

<set-up>
m2 (set box to Sequencer Mode)


<program stage 0>
s111111  (enable all shutter outputs for this stage)
f111111  (enable all focus outputs for this stage)
d100 200 300 400 500 600  (assigns each output delay to 100 200 300 400 500 600 millisconds)<br>


<program subsequent stages>
P (add stage)
j1 (select stage 1)
s111111  (enable all shutter outputs for this stage)
f111111  (enable all focus outputs for this stage)
d0 0 0 0 0 0  (assigns each output delay to 0 millisconds)<br>


<fire shutters>
j0   (selects sequence point 0)
F1   (focus camera)
<wait camera response time value>  (allow camera to respond to half button press)
S    (release shutter)
F0   (release focus)
