I use a Canon EOS 1000D, and I have the shutter remote in the link below, here are the features it has:

Delay / Self Timer (DELAY)
Just like the self timer on your camera. The timer remote switch allows you to set any delay (in 1 second increments) up to 99 hours, 99 minutes and 99 seconds.
Interval Timer (INTVL)
The Interval Timer can be set to any time period up to 100 hours as well. If you set it to 10 minutes, for example, one exposure will be taken every 10 minutes until either the film runs out or the Exposure Count limit has been reached.
BULB/Long Exposure (LONG)
It allows you to take time exposures up to 100 hours long.
Exposure Count (N)
This setting allows you to set the times of exposures
I mainly photograph the night sky, and create time-lapses, so I'm used to taking 30 sec exposures, and when it's exposing for that long I don't really need the delay, because the exposure time is the exact delay I need, but I'm trying to make a time-lapse of the sunset and am obviously using much much shorter exposures, but if I set it up the way I do at night time, the shutter is triggered after every 1/1000th sec exposure, which of course isn't what i want, I really can't get it to give any kind of delay, and timers I change on the remote are doing absolutely nothing to how often it's triggered.
Does anyone know what I should be doing to get a delay in place?
