19 | CHAPTER 2 – INSTALLING YOUR SMART BOARD 600I3 OR SBD600I3
INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD SYSTEM
Securing the Pen Tray and Interactive Whiteboard
Because your SMART Board interactive whiteboard’s pen tray is detachable, you
might want to safeguard it—and your interactive whiteboard—by anchoring it with a
security cable.
IMPORTANT
Securing the pen tray can provide theft deterrence for your interactive whiteboard
because the screws that secure your interactive whiteboard to the wall are located
directly behind the pen tray, and must be removed to detach the pen tray. In effect,
when you secure the pen tray, you’re also securing your interactive whiteboard if
the security cable is tight.
Underneath the pen tray, there is a security slot that accommodates a security cable,
such as a Kensington® lock.
IMPORTANT
Be aware that security cable locks are not designed to be a solid protection
measure because the lock can be torn out. However, potential thieves might be
reluctant to try to sell a product with a broken security cable lock hole, which
would readily identify it as a stolen item.
To lock the pen tray
to your interactive
whiteboard
1. Loop the security cable behind the pen tray brackets before you secure them
to the wall, and then thread the lock end of the cable through the loop end of
the cable.
2. Verify that the cable is tight enough to prevent you from removing the pen tray
while the lock is in place, and then install the pen tray.
3. Insert the prong end of the security cable into the security slot, and then complete
the pen tray installation by securing it to the wall.
