2 Setup Warnings and cautions Before performing upgrades be sure to carefully read all of the applicable instructions, cautions, and warnings in this guide. WARNING! fire: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage from electric shock, hot surfaces, or Disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet and allow the internal system components to cool before you touch them. Do not plug telecommunications or telephone connectors into the network interface controller (NIC) receptacles.
Connecting the AC power cord 1. Connect the round end of the power supply cord to the power supply connector on the rear of the thin client (1). 2. Use the slot (2) on the side of the retractable AC power cord retention hook to pull the hook out. 3. Press the AC power cord into the retention hook (3) and bundle any excess AC power cord. 4. Plug the female end of the AC power cord into the power supply brick (4). 5. Connect the other end of the AC power cord to an AC outlet (5).
Attaching the stand CAUTION: Unless the thin client is mounted with the HP Quick Release, it must be operated with the stand attached to ensure proper airflow around the thin client. Adjusting the stand The stand can be adjusted into two configurations: square for the horizontal position and rectangular for the vertical position. Take the stand apart by removing the two short pieces connecting the two sides.
● 7. Attach the stand to the right side of the thin client to use it in the horizontal orientation. a. Lay the thin client down with the right side up and locate the two screw holes in the grid on the right side of the thin client. b. Position the stand (1) over the side of the thin client and line up the captive screws in the stand with the screw holes in the thin client. c. Tighten the captive screws (2) securely. Reconnect the AC power cord and then turn the thin client on.
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, go to the HP website at http://www.hp.com and search for your specific thin client. 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.
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. 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.
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. 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 mounting options for the mounting bracket.
