have you tried this found here : https://github.com/erik-smit/sony-camera-api/blob/master/actEnableMethods.sh

other references to this hack here: http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=10736.10 i could not get it to work but if it can help in your research in any way

public String getDG() throws IOException {
    String service = "accessControl";
    try {
        JSONObject paramsMethods =
                new JSONObject().put("developerName","");
        paramsMethods.put("sg","");
        paramsMethods.put("methods","");
       paramsMethods.put("developerID","");

        JSONObject requestJson =
                new JSONObject().put("method", "actEnableMethods") //
                        .put("params", new JSONArray().put(paramsMethods)) //
                        .put("id", id()).put("version", "1.0");

        String url = findActionListUrl(service) + "/" + service;

        log("Request:  " + requestJson.toString());
        String responseJson = SimpleHttpClient.httpPost(url, requestJson.toString());
        log("Response: " + responseJson);
        JSONArray resultsObj = new JSONObject(responseJson).getJSONArray("result");

        String dg = null;
        JSONObject dgobj = resultsObj.getJSONObject(0);
        dg = dgobj.getString("dg");


        return dg;
