7.2.2 – Managing tracks on SmartyCam 3 

If SmartyCam 3 is not connected to any AiM logger but only to AiM GPS 09 Module track selection can be managed in two ways: automatic 
(default) and manual 
In 

AUTO

 mode SmartyCam 3 recognizes and selects the map of the circuit you are racing on. 

In 

MANUAL

 mode you need to select the track by yourself. To 

manually set a track

 on SmartyCam 3: 

 

press “Change” (Default setting is Auto) 

 

the track list is shown: locate your track 

 

press: “View” 

 

press “Sel” 

 

SmartyCam 3 shows a confirmation message 

 

TRACKS Menu allows to 

see a preview of the track

 and the related information too. In “TRACK” menu scroll to “TRACK SHOW” and press 

“SEL”. This is very useful in case you need to select a specific track configuration among more configurations of the same track as shown 

here below.
