Autofocus Delay
[ms]
Delay time before Autofocus becomes active. Autofocus Delay is preceded by Stop
Time. 1000 ms = 1 second. Value within the range of 0-9999 ms (
Fig. 20
). Value = 0
disables Autofocus Delay.
Autofocus Time [ms]
Time during Autofocus is active. Autofocus Time is preceded by Autofocus Delay.
Value within the range of 0-9999 ms (
Fig.
20
). Value = 0 disables Autofocus Time.
Shutter Delay [ms]
Delay before Shutter becomes active. Shutter Delay is preceded by Stop Time. Value
within the range of 0-9999 ms (
Fig.
20
). Value = 0 disables Shutter Delay.
Shutter Time [ms]
Time during Shutter is active. Shutter Time is preceded by Shutter Delay. Value
within the range of 0-9999 ms (
Fig.
20
). Value = 0 disables Shutter Time.
Wait Time [ms]
An amount of time before the next step or next photo after Shutter Time and
Autofocus Time have ended. This parameter is useful when you want to allow extra
time for your SD card to save a photo (
Fig.
20
).

The total step time consists of Stop Time, Autofocus Delay, Autofocus Time, Shutter Delay,
Shutter Time and Wait time. Below is an example on how this parameters affect the total step

left corner and the top right corner (
Tab. 4
).

Total step time example.
Most cameras do not require the external autofocus signal. In this you must set the

Always make sure to set autofocus to 0 when your camera does not support
