Why does my Pixel TW-282 trigger interval shooting on a Nikon D750?

When I connect a Pixel TW-282 remote shutter release to my Nikon D750, the camera starts shooting in repeated intervals on its own. This happens regardless of camera mode, and the camera’s built-in interval settings are turned off. I also noticed it happens even when the transmitter and receiver appear to be on different channels. Is this likely a camera setting I’m missing, a channel/setup issue, or a faulty remote/receiver that should be replaced under warranty?

After some attempts with the help of the folks here we came to a conclusion that it's not settings in the camera or the remote and I'll probably going to use my warranty and see what the store says. Thanks everyone!

This sounds more like a problem with the Pixel TW-282 setup or hardware than a setting on the D750.

From the discussion, the transmit unit worked normally when connected directly to the camera, which points to the receiver as the likely fault. Before replacing it, make sure the transmitter and receiver are actually set to the same channel. On these units, the default is often shown as "--" (no channel), while an assigned channel appears as a two-digit number.

If the camera still starts interval shooting by itself after confirming the channel settings, and the camera’s own interval functions are off, the receiver is probably defective. In that case, using the warranty or exchanging the unit is the sensible next step.
