Aim smarty cam problem
My SC has always been perfect. Just updated the firmware and at first it wouldn't auto start. I went in and set to auto start and auto stop. Now I get the pace lap and then coming up to the key hole at MO the camera shut off. Help!!!!!
Thanks,

Which version of camera? Original, HD, GP?
A couple things to check - make sure it has ~80% battery before starting. Also make sure if it's set to record with the logger, that the speed is above your minimum track speed (same for auto start).

Sounds like the battery is low...
Auto Start speed should be 50 kmh/30 mph, default is logger command.
Auto Stop time should be 1 minute, default is 20 seconds.

Do you have to check the settings after a firmware update?

Typically? No.
Except for added features a few years ago (multiple speed thresholds, metadata on/off, mic levels), it’s not been my experience that fw updates change any function of the camera itself away from the way it’s been working before the fw update. That’s why this does not make sense.

Wirh Speed, if there is no GPS speed (or it drops out for more than 1 minute), it’ll stop recording.

Your Speed choices include 10/20/30 mph (or kmh equivalent).
