Operation

After following the previous Installation instructions, the ST10CSU2A can be used in
“Charge” or “Sync” operating modes.

Charge Mode

Connected tablet devices will charge. Sync capabilities are disabled and you cannot
sync your tablet device with your host computer.

1. Toggle/push the Charge and Sync Button inside the ST10CSU2A, ensure the button

is in the “up” position to enable charge mode (sync is then disabled).

Sync Mode

Connected tablet devices will sync with your host computer.

1. Toggle/push the Charge and Sync Button inside the ST10CSU2A, ensure the button

is in the “down” position to enable sync mode.

Note: Most devices will still provide some level of charge capabilities to your
connected tablet devices while in sync mode, however, some devices cannot
simultaneously charge and sync. It is recommended you switch back to charge mode
once your syncing tasks are completed to continue to provide charge capabilities to
your connected devices.

Security and Surface-Mounting

Follow the below procedures for attaching a security cable, or for securing the
ST10CSU2A to a surface.

Note: Do not attempt to secure or mount the ST10CSU2A while your tablet devices
are connected or stored inside. Ensure the Power Switch is set to the “O” position and
remove the Power Cord from the ST10CSU2A.

Security Bracket

The ST10CSU2A features a slide-out Security Bracket on the rear upper-center position
of the unit. This bracket can be used with cable locks to secure the ST10CSU2A as
desired.

Surface-Mounting Method 1:

The ST10CSU2A features a slide-out Surface Mounting bracket on the rear lower-center
position of the unit. This bracket can be used with the provided screws to secure the
ST10CSU2A to a desk surface. Pull the bracket outward, insert the screws, and secure
the unit to a desk surface as desired.

Instruction Manual

Surface-Mounting Method 2:

The ST10CSU2A also includes a separate Desk Mount Bracket.

1. Secure the Desk Mount Bracket to a surface as desired using the included screws.

2. Align the bottom of the ST10CSU2A over the secured bracket, and gently slide the
bracket into the indent on the bottom of the ST10CSU2A.

3. Once in position, the integrated bracket on the rear-lower center position of the
ST10CSU2A (Mentioned in Method 1) can be pushed inward, locking the Desk
Mount Bracket rmly into place with the ST10CSU2A.

4. Attach a lock to the integrated bracket by looping it through the hole. This prevents
the bracket from sliding backward, ensuring the bottom Desk Mount Bracket
remains in a locked position and attached to the ST10CSU2A.

5. For easy removal, disconnect your lock, pull the integrated bracket outward, and the
Desk Mount Bracket will become dislodged from the bottom of the ST10CSU2A.

or stored inside. Ensure the Power Switch is set to the “O” position and remove the
Power Cord from the ST10CSU2A.
