It would be much easier than having to wire up a cable up & do it manually.
I have also contacted QHY for a circuit but have received only a component overlay & a small photo.
If I do this mod I want to open the camera only once & install it.
You can't just wire in your own circuit without knowing what's there
other wise you could back feed voltage into the camera shutter driver
IC - Integrated Circuit - & risk wrecking it.
I think I need to ask them to make a software upgrade as their
software does control the shutter.
Other comments on Yahoo -
" the idea is a poor man's AO7. "
That's true but also an AO7 can chase the seeing giving worse results
& you need a bright star to run an AO7 at 10hz - a lot of mucking around
& not always possible.
cheers
