13. Using Ninja Blade with external power supplies
14. Using Ninja Blade with Atomos Connect Converters
AC Adaptor (included)
This connects on the battery slot on the back of the Ninja Blade. Please
ensure it is connected to slot 1. The end of the adaptor will connect to a
mains plug.
Alternatively you can use any NP-Compatible Charger or power supply,
as long as they use a “Dummy Battery”.
D-Tap Adaptor (sold separately)
This adaptor allows you to take the power supply from any source that
has a D-Tap connection such as V-Lock
The D-Tap also connects to the battery slot of the Ninja Blade, please
ensure it is in slot 1. You will need a D-Tap to D-Tap cable (sold separately).
Voltages 7.2 to 16.8 volts. Please refer to Atomos D-Tap document on the
Atomos Knowledge Base.
You can think of Atomos Connect Converters as stand-alone devices
or as specially designed modules to give the Ninja Blade additional
capabilities. With them you can:
• Add an HDMI input to the Ninja Blade for connection to
non-HDMI devices using Connect S2H
• Add an HDMI output to the Ninja Blade for playout to
HDMI monitors using Connect H2S
There is nothing to set up when you use a Connect Converter. Just
secure the device in a battery slot (in Slot 1 if you only have a single
battery) and place the battery that previously occupied that slot in the
battery slot on the converter.
