TX unit. Wireless Configuration Bolt 4K contains several wireless configuration options that allow the system to work at its best in different environments. The system is designed to work adequately using its default, automatic settings, but they may not be ideal for all situations. This section details all available wireless configuration options for the transmitter and receiver.

Bolt Panel Antenna while in Broadcast Mode. NOTE: Bolt 4K XT/LT 750 and 1500 receivers will not link to a Bolt 4K XT/LT MAX transmitter in Broadcast Mode, even if they were previously paired. You must use a Bolt 4K MAX receiver. Otherwise, the receiver's OLED will display Broadcast Not Supported.
Page 54
• Better Quality Mode - (Two fine antennas) Maintains higher signal quality but reduces the maximum range. • Best Quality Mode (Bolt 4K XT only) - (Three fine antennas) Ideal for complex, high contrast scenes that require the highest possible quality.
Teradek User Manual Pairing and Unpairing Bolt 4K devices purchased as a set (TX and RX) are paired by default, requiring no additional configuration. Bolt 4K devices purchased separately need to be paired using the device's front panel (OLED) menu, Bolt Manager, or the Bolt App. You will need to use either Bolt Manager or the Bolt App to pair your transmitter with multiple receivers.
Page 56
1. Swipe right on the monitor’s touchscreen, then tap on the Settings option once it appears. 2. Scroll back up and tap to select the TERADEK BOLT 4K option, then tap Pair new receiver. 3. Enable Pairing on the Bolt 4K receiver(s)or by selecting Pair on the front panel menu. The Monitor Module will begin scanning for receivers to automatically pair with.
Page 57
2. Open Bolt Manager, select the Pairing tab, then tap the Unpair All button. Switch TX (RX only) Bolt 4K receivers can pair up to four transmitters simultaneously. Switch TX allows you to quickly switch from one paired transmitter's camera feed to another paired transmitter. This feature is especially useful in multi-camera situations when you need to switch to a different camera's view mid- shoot, without having to perform the pairing process every time.
• Off after 10 sec • No Burnin Prevention HDMI/SDI Output (Bolt 4K Receiver) You can choose to match the video source’s resolution (Same As Input) or choose from the resolutions list. If using the receiver with a recorder or monitor that is sensitive to video signal changes, select Continuous Output to ensure the signal stays constant even if the link is interrupted.

Teradek User Manual ▪ Spectrum Analyzer - Detects congestion in the area and determines which frequencies are available to use. Each bar represents a frequency, and the height represents the amount of congestion in that frequency; the higher the bar, the more congested that frequency is. Make sure to always select the shortest, least congested bar.
VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL ANTENNAS Vertical (V) antennas are included as a standard item with your Bolt 4K, offering good performance in a wide variety of short-to-medium range situations when quick setup and flexibility is key. V antennas are ideal for achieving diversity indoors.
