Cable for connecting to Git2 HDMI port.

We bought 3 "remote shutter cables" a few weeks ago.
We have been received them now.
BUT, no technical documentation is included.

We assume that this cable allows: Remote shutter and camera mode switch
It would need to know the function of each of the 3 cables (red, white and black).
We can not find information on your support website or forums about it.

We need to be able to start and stop the video recording of 4 or more cameras.
Please, could you indicate any reference or link with arduino or similar to start or stop recording with your remote shutter cable?
Thank you very much for your help.

Please,
Please, a question additional about the previous consult ...

If the Git2 camera is in "Wifi" mode activated:
Will it be possible to start or stop the movie using the Remote Shutter Cable?
Or the wifi mode deactivates this function.
We would like to work with the cable and wifi activated.

We haven't been able to check it because we don't know how to connect the Remote Shutter Cable (the function for each cable - red, white and black) and we don't want to damage the camera making a bad connection of cables.

We would apreciate very much your help.

For remote shutter cable, you can check this video first.

Normally no necessary to use the Red cable, but you can use it if you want to power the receiver like it showed in above video. The power is output from camera to receiver.
Black is for ground, white is for signal.

The remote shutter can work while the Wi-Fi enabled.

Thank you so much for the information. It has been very usuful for us.
Now we can control the camera (make a photo or video) using the remote shutter cable. It works OK with two cameras and we need four or more cameras.

But the remote shutter doesn’t work if the Wi-Fi is enabled in the camera !!!
That is a pity for us.

Please, could you check it?

We have tried several times but without success. At the moment we active the Wi-Fi then the remote shutter doesn’t work. In fact, in wi-fi mode the camera’s the shutter button does not work either.

We have installed the firmware v.1.7 in the Git2 camera.

How can we configure the Git2 camera for using Remote Shutter Cable and wifi unable in the camera?
Could we change any parameter for getting that?

Thank you in advance for your help.
