Exposure time

[ganzelc01]

Can and/or how can I set an exposure time of less than 1 second? I am using a D450.

You should post your BYN  questions in the BackyardNikon forum.

In the Capture Plan area of the imaging screen is where you define the capture parameters for each group of exposures. When BYN is connected to your camera, the Shutter dropdown controls have all the timed value exposure settings. The Duration column is for setting the length of BULB exposures, which are one second and longer.

In the Shutter controls, the magnitude of the values decrease as you scroll down the list.

It is a Canon, not Nikon.

You said that the camera was a D450. Nikon models have a letter, either 'D' or 'Z' before the number. Canon's have the letter after the number, so your model might be a 450D, AKA the XSi.

In any case, the same use of the Shutter pulldown for Short Exposures works with both Canon and Nikon DSLRs.
