Installing the keyboard in the console unit

Learn how to install the keyboard in the console unit.

To install the keyboard in the console unit, complete the following steps:

  1. Place the console unit on a table or other flat surface and make sure that the right side of the unit extends approximately 76 mm (3 in.) over the edge of the surface. This will help you route the keyboard-and-mouse cable more easily later in the procedure.
  2. Carefully lift the front of the flat-panel display to the full upright position.

    Attention: Do not extend the keyboard feet. The flat-panel display screen might be damaged if the feet are extended when the display is closed.
  3. Hold the keyboard near the keyboard tray and carefully route the keyboard-and-mouse cable down through the keyboard tray cutout and up through the cutout that is behind the flat-panel display. (See the illustration.) Carefully pull the cable through the cutouts.

  4. Peel the backing of the double-sided foam tape that is preinstalled on the front of the console tray.
  5. Place the keyboard in the tray and exert a small amount of pressure on the keyboard to secure it to the double-sided tape.
  6. Close the flat-panel display.
    Attention:
    • When you route the keyboard-and-mouse cable, make sure that the cable does not hang below the underside of the keyboard where it might be damaged if it interferes with the devices in the rack space below the console unit.
    • Make sure that you route all cables through the cable-routing features on the console frame behind the display and along the cable-management arm.
  7. Route the cable along the cable-management arm, securing the cables with the hook-and-loop fastener strips.
