Locking the AP340

To lock the AP340 to the mounting plate, use either a Kensington lock or the lock adapter that is included
with the mounting kit and a small padlock (not included).
To use a Kensington lock, loop the cable attached to the lock around a secure object, insert the T-bar
component of the lock into the device lock slot on the AP, and then turn the key to engage the lock
mechanism.
To use the lock adapter:
1. Insert the T-shaped extension on the adapter into the device lock slot, and rotate it clockwise so that the
curved section extends through the slot in the mounting plate (see

mounting plate. The opening is 1/8" (0.3 cm) in diameter at its narrowest.
