Grounded
I ran it today and my camera would turn off only, nothing else, Yesterday everything was working great. Then I remembered why I used two pins while setting this up. So I installed a 20k resistor from stamp pin b1 sync pin to ground and everything started working perfectly. I used two pins because I did not want to pull the sending line low, my scope showed only 3vdc on my camera not the 5vdc I expected.

2. 27 record and 29 stop are listed under special commands
2827 and 2829 none of my cameras with work with this
BUT THEY WILL WORK USING 1827 & 1829

Yes I found the same thing remember the command_byte2 that I said was not used that was hex 28.

3. I put my cams to sleep with 185E and wake up with the standard pulse lanc line low then send the record command I have never had to use the
185C power on command ( on my command sheet it list 5c but does not
tell what it is .

I understand, and have not tried this yet ( but will ) when setting something up I always use the full steps first, and then take the shortcuts later I would not be sure it works with all camers or not.

4. I think most people that does this shift 48 to 52us to read and write in the middle of the bit

Your talking about sending data to the first two bytes, not sending right after the syncbit but waiting until the middle of the 1.4 ms frame and sending then. I have a sinc_bit which looks for the camers syncbit and sends right after it finishes so my timing is right on not just sending somewhere in the middle. But when using a different osc 4mhz and not 10 mhz it could be too tight for a slower speed and this is something I need to check.

Now let me ask this Did you camera Power Down when you first turned on the pic's power. there is no delay so if the camera is not on and the switch between the camera and pic is not on and the pic is powered it will go into limbo and do nothing. So everything must be on then power the pic it should turnoff the camera immediately and be in sync.
