Mounting the Laptop

Figure 1-3. Attaching a Laptop to the Cover Plate

It is a simple task to mount the Laptop to PowerVista/312’s cover plate. When mounting the laptop, remember
to allow room for your laptop’s power adapter; unless you plan to locate the adapter beneath the cover plate as
discussed in section 1.2.3, Connecting the PC). Also, be sure that the laptop will not cover the circulation vents
on the left side of the cover plate.

Mount the laptop as follows:

1. Verify that PowerVista/312’s cover plate and bottom surface of the laptop are clean. This will provide for

optimum adhesion of the dual-lock tabs.

2. Attach a dual-lock tab (with its mating tab still attached) near each corner of the laptop’s bottom surface.

Note that there are two sets of dual-lock tabs. The smaller tabs are for use with the PC’s power adapter.

3. Expose the adhesive of the lower tabs.

4. Carefully place the laptop into position and press firmly.

Note: Use the smaller dual-lock tabs and similar method if you desire to mount the PC’s power adapter to the

cover plate.
