Default Second in-car Smartycam Set-up

I am running an AIM MXP system with Smartycam HD. Is it easy to add a second Smartycam HD as a rear facing camera? Is it easy to set-up in RS3? Can I just connect it to a channel expansion?

Super easy. Plug in the camera to the data hub after configuring the camera. Use the same config as the front to make it easy. Can't mix and match SCHD and SmartyCam SC3. Both older or newer. Not different. Yours are probably set up for older SCHD.

Hi Frank
That's the same basic set up we have. MXP. We have SC-GP facing front and we added a SC HD 2.1 racing rear. Just plug into a data hub, config the second camera in RS3 and it all works.
