Hi , I'm using a canon eos 550 d with the cable rs-60e3. I configuered the camera as the panogear manual explain but the shutter of the camera doesn't work at all . In the manual it is said :
Camera/lens
The "camera/lens" tab allows you to modify the width of the shutter
triggering pulse generated by the motorized head (if the camera triggers
more than once, reduce the pulse. If, on the contrary, the camera does not
trigger, increase the duration).
I don't understand what value I have to change in order to increase the duration of the trigger .
Thank you very much for your help.

first is your camera setup in manual mode ? as sometimes focus can prevent trigger to work ! if you push on trigger button of camera does it work ?

Change this value - this is duration that the switch on the camera port is closed.

Vincen means manual focus in this instance not manual exposure mode.

Hi, I tried to change the pulse values, I tried any possible combination but It doesn't work ... Do you think that is a panogear hardware problem ? Should I send It back to kolor ?
I hope somebody can help me.

Do you have a multimeter? Can you try to check if the 'contact' is closed during the shutter pulse?

@ Frederic
I have multimeter, can you explain where do I have to put the instrument ? It is said that if I open the panogear hardware warranty will expiere..
Should I test the cable rs-60e3 or something else ?
Thank You

Use your multimeter as a diode measurement instrument (the internal contact is an optocoupler). Connect it on the jack, and check if you see the contact closing (you should read the drop voltage of a diode, about 0.6V; check in both directions).

Hi , I used multimeter and finally I understood that the cable rs-60e3 is useless with panogear. I bought because of it is said in the camera compability page http://www.kolor.com/panogear-motorized … ility.html .
If you have a canon eos 550 d you just need the simple cable with the 2 jack included in panogear pack.
Thank you any way (frederic,andrew,vincen).

Right the original trigger cable included with Merlin head is ok for Canon jack cameras

I believe that higher end Canons require a different cable from that needed for lower end Canons.

I think check your camera setting. some problem occurs due to camera settings not proper with your flash.
