My Remote Timer -
The Pixel, Wireless Timer Remote Control, TW-282
One I have -
Pixel wireless timer remote control TW-282RX - [link]
Manual online - [link] - This manual is utterly incomprehensible. So I made this following post to work out the details.
Receiver
The receiver sits on top of the camera in the accesory shoe mount and plugs in via the accesory terminal on the side
❶ Low power battery icon
❷ Power on and CH- button
❸ Green indicator light.
Single press for 2 secs, light comes on briefly.
Hold for 6 secs for light to stay on.
❹ Light on and CH+ button
❺ Display screen (goes up to 99 channels)
To switch the receiver on hold the power button ❷ down.
To turn on the light click the right 'lightbulb' button ❹.
To change channel
Click both buttons ❷+❹, wait for channel number to flash.
Once number flashes use CH- and CH+ to change channel number. Up to 99 channels available.
When at the chosen channel press both buttons ❷+❹ again to lock the channel.
Remove battery (single 3V CR2 lithium) when not using.
Though for a different make this following video gives a good window into how to use the remote.
