Getting Started
Using the XyLoc Lock
The XyLoc Lock included in this package is a low power receiver that is connected to the PC

Placement of the XyLoc Lock
XyLoc uses advanced wireless technology to make PC security more convenient for the user.
The proper placement of the XyLoc Lock will ensure that users get the best performance
from XyLoc. For additional guidelines and suggestions, please view the “XyLoc Positioning
Tutorial” included on the installation CD.
Ideal placement is with the face of the Key parallel to the LED on the front of the Lock. The
best performance of the system will be achieved by trying to maintain this positioning while
you are seated at your PC doing your work.
The primary factor in deciding where to place the XyLoc Lock is to determine where the user
will wear the XyLoc Key the majority of the time. The Key can be clipped to a shirt pocket or
belt or worn on a lanyard around the user’s neck.
Once you’ve identified where the Key will be worn, place the Lock at the same height as
where the Key will be when the user is at the PC. You should also make sure that the path
between the Lock and Key is unobstructed (such as obstruction caused by your arm that
might occur while using your mouse or keyboard).
For example, if the user will wear the Key on the left side of the shirt, use the Velcro strip to
secure the Lock to the left side of the user’s monitor at the same height as the Key will be
when the user is seated.
