Physical Properties

Power and Connect

1. Connect the output from your video source to the HDMI input on the transmitter. Connect the HDMI output from the Ace 750 receiver to the monitor's video input.

2. Connect power to both the Spark 4K transmitter (USB-C) and receiver (USB-C/DC adapter), then move the power switches on both the transmitter and receiver to the ON ( I ) position. Video appears within a few seconds.                                                  

Pairing/Unpairing

Ace 750 devices purchased as a set (TX and RX), are paired by default, requiring no additional configuration. Ace 750 devices purchased separately must be paired using the Bolt Manager, or the Bolt App. To pair your transmitter with multiple receivers, you will also need to use either the Bolt Manager or the Bolt App. NOTE: Before starting either pairing process, ensure that both the transmitter and receiver have the same firmware version and have Bluetooth enabled.

PAIRING VIA BOLT APP
Pair:

  1. Open the Bolt App from your iOS or Android device, then tap the Pairing button.
  2. Select the transmitter you wish to pair, then tap the Next button.
  3. Select the receiver(s) you wish to pair with the transmitter, then tap the Pair! button. The Bolt App will indicate when the pairing process is complete.

To Unpair:

  1. Open the Bolt App from your iOS or Android device, then tap the TX settings button (3 dots) on the top right corner of the screen.
  2. Enter the Pairing menu, select the receiver(s) you wish to unpair, and then tap the Unpair button.

PAIRING TIPS
If you’re having trouble getting units to pair, we recommend keeping the transmitter and receiver six feet apart when pairing. Keep all other RF devices nearby turned off or out of range to ensure the transmitter and receiver are only detecting each other. To eliminate any chance of interference, perform the Wired Pairing process via Bolt Manager.

WIRED PAIRING VIA BOLT MANAGER

To Pair:

  1. Connect both the transmitter and receiver(s) to your computer (Windows/Mac) via USB.
  2. Open Bolt Manager, select the Pairing tab, then tap the Wired Pairing button.
  3. Select the devices you want to pair, then click the Pair Devices button. Bolt Manager will indicate whether or not Pairing is successful.

To Unpair:

  1. Connect the transmitter to your computer (Windows/Mac) via USB.
  2. Open Bolt Manager, select the Pairing tab, then tap the Unpair All button.
