Installing a Rope Clip - small desktop model
To help prevent hardware theft, you can add a 3/16 inch or 5 mm Rope Clip and
cable to your computer. After you add the security cable, make sure that it does
not interfere with other cables that are connected to the computer.
To install a Rope Clip:
1.
Remove the cover (see “Removing the cover - small desktop model” on
page 26).
2.
Use a tool, such as a screwdriver, to remove the two metal knockouts.
3.
Insert the Rope Clip through the rear panel; then attach and tighten the nuts
with an appropriately sized or adjustable wrench.
4.
Replace the computer cover. For more information, see “Replacing the cover
and connecting the cables - small desktop model” on page 33.
5.
Thread the cable through the Rope Clip and around an object that is not a part
of or permanently secured to the building structure or foundation, and from
which it cannot be removed; then fasten the cable ends together with a lock.
