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 (not included). 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.
