long term timelapse project - wolfram - 2015-02-27

Got today a request for a long term timelapse project:
Over a time frame of about 6 months I should shoot the progress of work when building a house. So, they are working from 7°° am to 4°° pm. I have electric power (used for the 40d power cord) and a dry place where I can shoot from. I would like to mount my old Canon 40D on a fixed tripod and use my timer (TC-80N3) to shoot a picture per hour from 7am to 4pm every day.
Is there apossibility to program the timer in a way that I do not have to start the intervallometer every morning?
If possible I would like to start it once a week.

Greetings

Wolfram

Hi Wolfram

Did you find a solution for your problem? I have the exact same situation and was not able to find a solution.

Hi c_Joerg

Thanks for your reply. This might be one way to solve the problem.
The question is: does it wake the camera the next day?

I found a software wich is obviously able to do the trick.

It's called GBTimelapse Pro and according to the Manual (page 35) this should work.
Since I need to connect to a Laptop anyway, this should work for me. Available in the Pro Version only tho ([font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]$198[/font]).

For all of you out there in need of a solution, here's a Link to the Manual (german):
