Default Mxl2 won't start camera

Setup

Mxl2
Hd smartycam
Standard def bullet can
Standard def smarty cam

Guy at track saying that the two SD cameras can't be triggered on due to the cameras being old

That doesn't make sense and also isn't what people all said when I asked here in December

Can someone give me directions on how to make that work?

"Guy at track saying that the two SD cameras can't be triggered on due to the cameras being old" Don't know what that means.

They (the SD smartycams) can be triggered by power on (logger control), or above a certain g measure (low=.2g, med=.4g, high=.8g).

Sometimes, if you charge them ALL up via USB, they'll work for awhile, but the AIM CAN doesn't have enough juice to run three cams, usually. Especially the GP's, both standard and HD.

I think that's a new record. Got plenty of folks running two, but that's ambitious! Good luck!
