Introduction

Note: This is the old way using Lua Script. Please see the new way to integrate with your AIM Data Logging system using CAN mapping.

This CAN bus integration maps CAN bus data from AIM systems using the CAN protocol used for the SmartyCam camera system.

Connecting to the AIM system

Note

  • RaceCapture/Pro provides a 12v input pin (Pin 8) on the RJ45 connector, which has a common connection to the 12v input of the RaceCapture/Pro terminal block.
  • This pin is rated at 1A max. We do not recommend using this pin to supply power to the AIM Smarty CAM.

Available Channels

This integration enables the following channels.

This assumes the AIM channels 1-5 are defined with the following configuration. You can customize this mapping based on your particular AIM configuration.

BMW E46 (including M3)
AIM Channel Name RaceCapture channel name
RPM RPM
Gear Gear
WaterTemp EngineTemp
Oil Press OilPress
Oil Temp OilTemp
Throttle Position TPS
Head Temp HeadTemp
Exhaust Temp EGT
Brake Pos (channel 1) BrakePos
Clutch Pos (channel 2) Clutch
Brake Press (channel 3) Brake
Steer Position (channel 4) Steering
Lambda (channel 5) Lambda
FuelLevel FuelLevel

Integration Cable

Build your own

AIM uses a Binder 5-pin series 702 connector - you can modify an existing compatible cable, or make a custom cable with the appropriate connectors and splice it with an RJ45 network cable.

AIM Integration configuration

Direct CAN channel Mapping

RaceCapture AIM channel mapping.png

Download this starter configuration to instantly import 16 pre-configured channels mapped to your AIM Smarty Cam data.

Instructions:

  • Save any existing channel configuration, such as your analog sensors, as this starter configuration will overwrite your current configuration.
  • Unzip the downloaded AIM SmartyCAM configuration and extract the .rcp file.
  • Connect the RaceCapture app to your RaceCapture system
  • Go to Setup, and press Open to open the unzipped configuration file.
  • Press Write to write the configuration to your RaceCapture system.
  • Switch to the Dashboard view to monitor and verify the AIM SmartyCAM channels.

Important Note

  • If you are converting from the Lua script integration to direct CAN mapping, be sure to completely remove your Lua script mapping by erasing the Lua scripting window and writing the configuration back to RaceCapture.
