    Default Smartycam map

    Can’t seem to get the track map to show on smartycam, I can see the frame that map is supposed to be within so I guess I have failed somehow to tell it what map to use. Any help appreciated

    Having same issue. AiM also did not recognized the track for the data. I thought it was automatic. Do we need to select it on the dash?

    Tracks do not have to be selected. For it to show up on the video, you need the map placed on the configuration and that configuration transmitted to the SCHD. You also need to transmit the map GPS info to the camera. For a SCHD (GP or not) it's easiest to do all of this in RS3.

    For the data that was recorded, download the session and then do a GPS lap insert.

    Make sure you have the track coordinates in both the dash/logger and the SCHD. Depending on the track, you may have to change the track width to make sure it hits the coordinates. Places like Pocono that are really wide can cause this problem.

    Did it but it seems there are little things that need to be modified to make it all work, like RPM was off till I split it by 2

    Do you have a new system? That is part of the setup of the dash/logger.
