USB remote on my Canon A540

Filed under: Photography, electronics — Tags: , , , — coldhandshake @ 10:09 pm

I got a Canon A540 the other week, it’s a great camera. I found this software for Canon cameras, it enables alot of features not enabled by default on Canons including scripts. I enabled USB remote with this script. I then made a little circuit to apply 3.3 volts to the correct wires on the USB port of the camera. Here is a photo of the device taken using the remote.

I will post projects that I do and my learning process. I hope to develop a reader for some punch tape from an old CNC machine that I have. It’s tape with 8 holes it for 8 bits of data and one smaller hole for syncing I assume.
