Dock, connect and power-up
NOTE: AtomX CAST will power the docked Ninja V/V+
device. AtomX CAST is reliant on DC power from the
international DC power supply included with the Ninja V
or Ninja V+ you are using with this device OR alternatively,
AtomX CAST and the docked Ninja V or Ninja V+ can be
powered via a D-Tap power source using the optional D-Tap
battery cable (ATOMDTPCB1). Ensure you have a suitable
power supply ready to commence operation.
Connecting Ninja V / Ninja V+
NOTE: Before attempting to attach monitor, ensure locking
arm is released to allow docking. Never force or apply
undue pressure when attaching your monitor. When
correctly aligned the devices will lock together eortlessly.
1. Rotate the thumb screw to release CAST’s locking arm
(used to secure Ninja V/V+ once docked).
2. With the Ninja V/V+ in hand, align the battery slot of Ninja
with expansion port of CAST and gently slide in to place in
the same fashion as connecting a battery. The Ninja V/V+ will
engage with a reassuring click of the battery release button.
3. Move locking arm into position, align with Ninja top mount
and rotate the thumbscrew to secure the locking arm in place.
Attach Power
With the docking process complete, insert the DC jack into the
DC port on the rear of the CAST and rotate the locking nut to
secure it in place. The DC connection will provide power to both
the AtomX CAST and the Ninja V/V+.
