Premium Members Mike Gailing Posted September 28, 2017 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Hey guys, We built a real-time 5GHz spectrum analyzer into Bolt 3000 receivers. This will be a free firmware update in the near future, but we're looking for some beta testers to give it a shot. We used it extensively at IBC this year and it came in super handy. There is no better way to quickly scan for the best channel to set your Bolt system to. If you're interested in giving it a go, shoot me a private message and ill shoot you over the new firmware. It will be available for the 1000 and 500 just after its officially launched for the 3000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Mike Gailing Posted September 29, 2017 Author Premium Members Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 How about for the 2000? Unfortunately, the chipset in the 2000 does not support the feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Charles Papert Posted September 30, 2017 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 That's a pretty cool feature, Mike. Would there be a possibility of having it talk to the the desktop software to render a more sophisticated real-time graph of the spectrum, so for instance a DIT could use it as a frequency analyzer without having to use other hardware?

There's a pretty cheap app for Mac called Wifi Explorer that works as a frequency analyzer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are bigger plans to expand this to more than just the RX, though I don't know how far they'll take it. This will go hand in hand with some simplified pairing procedures that we're working on as well. More to come after we get this firmware out of beta...
