Power and Connect

Updated on

Bolt 6 XT/LT

  1. Connect power to the Bolt transmitter and receiver with the included A/C adapter, or if both devices are equipped with battery plate accessories, attach a compatible battery (Gold or V mount).
  2. Connect the output from your video source to either the SDI or HDMI input on the Bolt transmitter.
  3. Connect either the SDI or HDMI output from the Bolt receiver to the video input on your monitor. NOTE: If mounting the receiver upright on a stand above the monitor, use a right-angle SDI adapter to relieve any strain caused by the weight of the cable, and to avoid damaging the SDI output’s internal connectors.
  4. Move the power switches on both the transmitter and receiver to the ON position.
