10 | CHAPTER 2 – INSTALLING AND SECURING YOUR SMART BOARD
INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD
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. Underneath the pen tray, you’ll find a lock slot that accommodates a
security cable, such as a Kensington® lock.
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 cannot be removed without first detaching the
pen tray. In effect, when you secure the pen tray, you also secure your interactive
whiteboard if the security cable is tight.
To lock the pen tray
to your interactive
whiteboard
1. Loop your security cable behind the pen tray brackets before you secure them
to the wall.
2. Thread the lock end of the cable through the loop end of the cable.
3. Verify that the cable is tight enough that you can’t remove the pen tray while the
lock is in place, and then install the pen tray.
4. Insert the prong end of the security cable into the lock slot, and then complete
the pen tray installation by locking it.
Securing the pen tray to the pen tray brackets
Since you can remove the pen tray without tools, you might want to securely attach it
to its brackets. To do this, insert two No. 8/M4 screws (not included) into the holes
indicated by a lock symbol on the bottom of the pen tray.
