• Test the power cable polarity with ONLY the power cable connected to Bolt. Do not connect video cables.
• Check the power cable for shorts and proper grounding.
Bolt Pro 600/2000
• Keep the transmitter and receiver at close range for 60 seconds after powering on the devices. This allows
them to scan for and select the best wireless channel.
• For best results when using multiple Bolt systems in the same area, place the transmitters and receivers
a few feet apart from each other.
• Operation of other wireless equipment may interfere with the Bolt for best results, separate other
wireless transmitters and receivers as much as possible.
Bolt Pro 2000
• If the receiver loses signal due to interference or it exceeds the maximum range, do not power down either
device. If the devices remain powered they will reconnect more quickly.
• While operating in Unicast Mode, if either device loses power, regardless of whether or not the link was
established, both must be power cycled before the link can be restored.
• Mount the Bolt Pro 600/2000 transmitter vertically, keeping the antennas clear of any obstructions.
• Orient the transmitter and receiver antennas so they are parallel to each other.
• For best results, orient the receiver antennas so each one has clear line−of−sight to the receiver.
CAUTION:
Using a reverse polarity or improperly−constructed power cable can damage the product
and is not covered under warranty.
