Event Kit (stepper)

Your HALO Event Kit travels in a custom case with a portable stand. This guide walks you through what's in the case and how to assemble your HALO so it's ready to capture. When your event wraps, see Repacking your case at the end.

What's in your case

The travel case is custom-cut to hold each part snugly. Here's what you'll find, top to bottom.

HALO body

At the top of the case. Set it somewhere safe.

Stand legs

Just below the body.

Stand riser

At the bottom of the case.

HALO pin and stand pin

The HALO pin (small knob side) and stand pin (big knob side), plus the charger. The clamp and charger are in the side compartments.

Assemble your HALO

Release the legs

Pull up on the ring marked in green on the base.

Rotate the legs into position

Tilt or pull each leg out. Each one stops automatically when it reaches the right spot.

Lock the legs

Release the lock so its grooves sit flush with the base.

Add the riser

Place the riser in the base and secure it with the bottom knob.

Raise the stand

Extend it and tighten the knobs. We recommend about 5 feet (1.5 m) off the ground.

Attach the clamp

The larger side (with the bigger handle) attaches to the top of the stand. Position the smaller side so the round receptacle is horizontal, not vertical.

Attach the HALO

Insert the back pin into the round receptacle until the HALO is flush with the clamp. When it's seated correctly, the silver pin shouldn't be visible. Tighten the small handle, and loosen it slightly anytime to adjust the angle.

Insert the iPad

Pull the faceplate off using the side tabs near the top, then secure the iPad with the interior swivel tabs.

Plug in the iPad and replace the faceplate

Hold the bottom of the iPad near the base of the HALO body to avoid straining the cable, then press the faceplate back onto the magnets.

Power on

Insert the power cord into the bottom-back of the HALO body and flip the switch beside it. The light turns on and the iPad starts charging.

Adjust lighting and exposure

Set HALO's brightness with the side knob. Fine-tune exposure and other camera settings in the app's Mission Control. Adjust brightness and camera settings together for the best result.
