Connect the SDI output from your video source to the HD/3G-SDI input (J) on the Bolt transmitter. Connect either of the HD/3G-SDI outputs from the Bolt receiver to the SDI input on your monitor.
2
Connect power to your Bolt transmitter using the included P-Tap to Lemo cable. Power the Bolt receiver with the included A/C adapter or battery plate accessory. If using the battery plate, connect a compatible battery (AB Gold mount or V-Lock) to the plate, and connect the short cable from the plate to the receiver’s DC input (G).

BEST PRACTICES
BOLT LEMO CONNECTOR / PIN−OUT
Bolt uses a 0B 302 series LEMO connector (FGG.0B.302.CLADxx).
Pin Description
1* GND 2 +DC
* Pin 1 is closest to the red dot on the LEMO connector
CUSTOM / 3RD PARTY CABLES
• 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.
CAUTION:
Using a reverse polarity or improperly−constructed power cable can damage the product and is not covered under warranty.
MOUNTING
• Mount the Bolt Pro 2000 transmitter vertically, keeping the antennas clear of any obstructions.
• Orient the transmitter and receiver antennas so they are parallel to each.
• For best results, orient the receiver antennas so each one has clear line−of−sight to the receiver.

DEVICE OPERATION
Best Practices
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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 BP2K; for best results, separate other wireless transmitters and receivers as much as possible.
