Product Information
Full details
The Atomos DC to D-TAP Coiled Cable is an essential power accessory for videographers and cinematographers who use Atomos monitor-recorders and need reliable, external power. Its primary benefit is the ability to bypass smaller camera or monitor batteries in favor of long-lasting external power sources, ensuring consistent performance during extended shoots; however, it is important to note that this cable is not compatible with the original first-generation Shogun monitor.

FAQs
Which Atomos monitors are compatible?
It is compatible with most Atomos monitor-recorders, excluding the original first-generation Shogun.
What is the maximum reach of the cable?
The cable features a coiled design that can extend up to 32 inches.
Does this cable support 16.8V input?
Yes, it is designed to support power sources up to 16.8 VDC.
Why does the DC connector have a locking feature?
The locking barrel provides a secure connection that prevents the cable from being accidentally pulled out during filming.
Can I use this with any D-Tap source?
Yes, as long as the power source does not exceed 16.8 VDC and provides standard D-Tap output.
Troubleshooting
Monitor does not receive power
Ensure the locking barrel is fully seated and tightened. Check that the D-Tap battery is charged and that the battery output is active.
Intermittent power connection
Check for debris inside the DC port or the D-Tap socket. Ensure the cable is not being pulled taut, which can strain the connectors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the cable, align the locking DC end with the power input on your compatible Atomos recorder and rotate the locking ring until secure. Connect the D-Tap end to your external battery power distribution plate.
Compatibility Note: This cable works with almost all Atomos monitor-recorders, with the specific exception of the original Shogun. Always verify your input voltage does not exceed 16.8 VDC.
Care Instructions: To maintain the longevity of the cable, avoid over-stretching the coils beyond their natural limit. Keep the connectors clean of dust and debris, and always store the cable without sharp bends at the connection points to prevent internal wire fraying.
