Choosing your power source

The SHOGUN CONNECT can be powered by the included DC Power Supply, or by using compatible NP-F / L-Series type batteries. If you are the owner of other ATOMOS devices, the batteries you have for these devices will be compatible with your SHOGUN CONNECT.

Using the International DC Power Supply

Secure the DC connector from the included International DC Power Supply to the DC Power Jack on the rear of your SHOGUN CONNECT. The optional ATOMOS coiled DC to D-Tap cable (ATOMDTPCB2) can also be used to connect a D-Tap power source to this connector in the field.

DC to D-Tap Coiled Cable

The DC to D-Tap Coiled Cable is an optional ATOMOS accessory. It is designed to allow you to power your device from an external battery system with a D-Tap port. Simply connect the D-Tap connector to your power source.

To purchase a DC to D-Tap Coiled Cable, visit ATOMOS coiled DC to D-Tap cable.

Ensure that the output of the power source does not exceed 16.8V DC.

Using Batteries

The SHOGUN CONNECT uses standard NP-F/L-Series compatible batteries. New batteries should be charged using a compatible battery charger before use.

To purchase ATOMOS NP-F type batteries, visit the 5200mAh (4 cell) or 7800mAh (6 cell) pages on the ATOMOS website.

To view the remaining battery life for attached batteries, tap the battery icon in the top right of your SHOGUN CONNECT screen.

Choosing the right battery for your application

* Battery life tested during Monitor/Record 4Kp60 operation.

Before any type of disposal the battery should be discharged completely. Tape the contacts with electrical tape and package so as to prevent contacts accidentally coming together at any time.

Incineration must be performed by an approved and permitted waste treatment facility that handles lithium ion batteries. If you are not sure if your waste facility can handle lithium ion batteries, contact them and verify if they are permitted or not.

ATOMOS Fast Battery Charger (optional)

The ATOMOS Fast Battery Charger has been designed to rapidly charge NP-F type batteries, yet be lightweight so that is easy to travel with. To purchase an ATOMOS Fast Battery Charger , visit atomos.com/accessories/fast-battery-charger-power-supply

Fast charging of the battery is possible up to 80% capacity and the remaining 20% will then charge at a slower rate to maintain optimal battery life.

In the unlikely event of a charge error the first and last red LEDs will flash quickly.

Attaching batteries

How to attach a battery

To connect a compatible battery, place the battery in front of the retaining lug, align with the connectors and slide the battery into the slot until it clicks into place.

Once locked into position, SHOGUN CONNECT batteries and modular accessories are held in place tightly to ensure that they cannot work loose. You may have to be quite firm with the battery latches to remove batteries and accessories, so we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the force required so that you can do this quickly in the field.

How to remove a battery

To remove a battery, press the Battery Release and slide the battery away from the unit to remove it.
