Security provisions B-2 www.hp.
C Mounting the thin client HP Quick Release The HP Compaq t5720 thin client incorporates four mounting points on each side of the unit. These mounting points follow the VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) standard, which provides industry-standard mounting interfaces for Flat Displays (FDs), such as flat panel monitors, flat displays, and flat TVs. The HP Quick Release connects to the VESA-standard mounting points, allowing you to mount the thin client in a variety of orientations.
Mounting the thin client To use the HP Quick Release with a VESA-configured thin client: 1. Using four 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. Connecting the HP Quick Release to the thin client C-2 www.hp.
Mounting the thin client 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. Connecting the HP Quick Release to another device Hardware Reference Guide www.hp.
Mounting the thin client 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. Connecting the thin client attached, the HP Quick Release automatically locks in ✎ When position. You only need to slide the lever to one side to remove the thin client.

D Electrostatic discharge A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device. Preventing electrostatic damage To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions: Hardware Reference Guide ■ Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
Electrostatic discharge Grounding methods There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of the following methods when handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive parts: ■ Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded Thin Client chassis. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm +/- 10 percent resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper grounding, wear the strap snug against the skin. ■ Use heelstraps, toestraps, or bootstraps at standing workstations.
E Thin client operation Routine thin client care Use the following information to properly care for your thin client: Hardware Reference Guide ■ Operate the thin client on a sturdy, level surface. Leave a 1-inch (2.5-cm) clearance around the air vents to permit the required airflow. ■ Never operate the thin client with the outside panel removed. ■ Never restrict the airflow into the thin client by blocking the vents or air intake.
Thin client operation Supported orientations HP supports the following orientations for the thin client. Ä CAUTION: You must adhere to HP-supported orientations to ensure your thin clients function properly. ■ You can stand thin clients vertically. Vertical orientation E-2 www.hp.
Thin client operation ■ You can lay thin clients horizontally. Horizontal orientation ■ You can lay thin clients under a monitor stand with a one-inch clearance above the unit. Under monitor stand Hardware Reference Guide www.hp.
Thin client operation Non-supported orientations HP does not support the following orientations for the thin client. Ä CAUTION: Non-supported placement of thin clients could result in operation failure and/or damage to the devices. Ä CAUTION: Thin clients require proper ventilation to maintain operating temperature. ■ Do not put a monitor directly on top of a thin client. Do not put a monitor on top of the thin client E-4 www.hp.
Thin client operation ■ Do not horizontally stack thin clients. Thin clients require proper ventilation to maintain operating temperatures. Do not stack thin clients ■ Do not put thin clients in drawers or other sealed enclosures. Thin clients require proper ventilation to maintain operating temperatures. Do not put thin clients in drawers or other sealed enclosures Hardware Reference Guide www.hp.
Thin client operation ■ Do not place materials on thin clients that block the vents. Thin clients require proper ventilation to maintain operating temperatures. Do not block the vents of the thin client ■ Do not position the thin client vertically without using the stand. Do not position the thin client vertically without using the stand E-6 www.hp.
F Shipping information Shipping preparation Follow these suggestions when preparing to ship the thin client: 1. Turn off the thin client and external devices. 2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, then from the thin client. 3. Disconnect the system components and external devices from their power sources, then from the thin client. 4. If you have upgraded the SODIMM, remove it and replace the original SODIMM that came with the unit. 5.
Shipping information Important service repair information In all cases, remove and safeguard all external options before returning the thin client to HP for repair or exchange. In countries that support customer mail-in repair by returning the same unit to the customer, HP makes every effort to return the repaired unit with the same internal memory and flash modules that were sent.
