NX1: “Shot 2 Rec” + “USB Charging” = simultaneously : HELP
Dear Comrades! I do really appreciate your help.

1. “USB Charging” works perfectly fine
2. Shutter Release via USB port works perfectly fine
3. I spent entire day trying to create ONE usb cable with BOTH functions simultaneously.

It looks like i understand “usb pin-outs”, but i do not understand why i fail.  i have a usb-release-cable-knob (works fine) but i'm going mad with pin-out logic for USB release..

Please, HOW to create a USB cable with BOTH: release knob + charging.

Thanks in advance…

usb Shooter release cable: is a simple knob, which connects ground of usb cable with white one. if green one shortened to the ground, the pre-focus activated (the same logic as a main release button on the boby). There are No digital signals involved...

But, for some reason, i can not duplicate release cable via hand made one. That makes me creasy...))) 

You can buy nx1 usb release cable on ebay for 10 dollars, and it is a fantastic little tool. I wish i could marry this cable with charging option...

That is very interesting to know. How doe the cable know there is a release cable attached or is it always checking for the pull down on those pins? In that case, I would guess that as soon as you plug anything else into the USB outlet such as a charging source the camera would stop listening for the cable release pins.

have you been able to build a simple DIY cable release without the charging?

No, that's drive me crazy, because original usb-release cable has NO electronic inside, but ONLY simple knob...

Any advise???
