Overview
PSRemote allows Canon PowerShot digital cameras to be operated tethered to a PC using a
USB cable. Virtually all of the camera's settings can be controlled from the PC (the degree of
control depends on the camera model). PSRemote is able to control the exposure mode, ISO,
shutter speed, aperture and lens zoom setting of most PowerShot cameras.
The USB cable may be up to 5m (16 feet) long. One or more USB hubs can be used to extend
the distance e.g. PSRemote has been tested using two 5m cables connected to USB hubs and a
4m cable connected to the camera giving a total length of 14m (approx 46 feet). There are
commercially available USB extenders which can be used if the camera needs to be further
from the computer. These can be active USB 2.0 extender cables or extenders using Cat 5e
cable for greater range and reliability. You can also use a USB hub that connects to a LAN
such as the Belkin Network USB Hub.
It is advisable to use a mains DC adaptor when using PSRemote for extended periods or when
using the time lapse features. If the camera is located a long way from the PC or is not easily
accessible it is essential that there is a way of turning the power to the camera on and off.
Then if there is a communication failure between the camera and PC it is possible to turn
everything off and to start again.
