Feature Request: Interval Parameter Setting when in AUX 2 External Mode #17

Hi Elijah, being a user that currently needs to use the View in conjunction with AUX 2 external sync mode (as I have Syrp Products for now), it would be a massive help to be able to set Interval limits in the view in this (AUX 2 External) intervalometer setting as I found the following issue the other day when shooting.

In V1.7.8 I had the Genie shooting with 10 Sec Intervals, the Plus was slaved to the Genie in AUX2 External mode and detecting those 10 sec intervals (showed them on screen). Yet as the light dropped (at sunset) even though the camera was set to 100 ISO to start with, the Plus pushed the shutter speed right beyond 6 secs to 8 secs and failed to increase ISO beyond 125. As a result the Camera dropped several exposures because the Plus and the camera couldn't cycle fast enough without a 4-5 sec buffer (Canon 6D).

I can see two potential solutions to this issue. Either the View could start to increase the ISO to maintain a correct exposure when the shutter speed is getting within the maximum available time, based on the intervals its detecting. i.e. if its detecting 10 sec intervals it could get to a 5 or 6 sec exposure then start pushing up ISO.

The alternative would be - if the Plus gave the user Interval parameter settings in 'External AUX 2' intervalometer mode, then the user could tell the view, my maximum intervals are '10 seconds' for example so the view knows to stop increasing the shutter speed and start pushing ISO up instead.

This would be awesome if possible please.

Thanks for reading,

Mark
