B Security Provisions
Securing the Thin Client
These thin clients are designed to accept a security cable lock. This cable lock prevents unauthorized
removal of the thin client, as well as locking the secure compartment. To order this option, visit the HP
Web site at http://www.hp.com and search for your specific thin client model.
1. Locate the cable lock slot on the back panel.
2. Insert the cable lock into the slot, and then use the key to lock it.

C Mounting the Thin Client
HP Quick Release
This thin client incorporates four mounting points on the bottom of the unit. These mounting points follow
the VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) standard, which provides industry-standard
mounting interfaces for Flat Displays (FDs), such as flat panel monitors, flat displays, and flat TVs. The
HP Quick Release connects to the VESA-standard mounting points, allowing you to mount the thin client
in a variety of orientations.
NOTE: When mounting to a thin client, use the 10 mm screws supplied with the HP Quick Release.
Figure C-1 HP Quick Release
10 Appendix C Mounting the Thin Client ENWW

To use the HP Quick Release:
1. Using four 10 mm screws included in the mounting device kit, attach one side of the HP Quick
Release to the thin client as shown in the following illustration.
Figure C-2 Connecting the HP Quick Release to the thin client
2. Using four screws included in the mounting device kit, attach the other side of the HP Quick Release
to the device to which you will mount the thin client. Make sure the release lever points upward.
Figure C-3 Connecting the HP Quick Release to another device
ENWW HP Quick Release 11

3. Slide the side of the mounting device attached to the thin client (1) over the other side of the
mounting device (2) on the device on which you want to mount the thin client. An audible 'click'
indicates a secure connection.
Figure C-4 Connecting the thin client
NOTE: When attached, the HP Quick Release automatically locks in position. You only need to slide
the lever to one side to remove the thin client.
CAUTION: To ensure proper function of the HP Quick Release and a secure connection of all
components, make sure both the release lever on one side of the mounting device and the rounded
opening on the other side face upward.
Supported Mounting Options
The following illustrations demonstrate some of the supported and not supported mounting options for
the mounting bracket.
●You can mount a thin client between a flat panel monitor and the wall.

Release and damage to the thin client and/or other equipment.
Do not mount the thin client on a flat panel monitor stand between the panel and the stand.
