UNIVERSAL SECURITY
DEFCON® SERIALIZED VPCL
COMBINATION CABLE LOCK
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Defcon Serialized VPCL - Combination
Cable Lock to help protect your valuable computer from theft. The
VPCL is a 6-foot 5-inch vinyl coated, stainless steel cable with a preset
4-digit combination lock. It attaches to your computer, monitor or
projector via the VGA port by using the included pass-through video
cable. This allows you to continue using the video port while protecting
your computer.
Serialized Combination
The DEFCON Serialized VPCL Combination Cable lock is assigned a
unique combination and serial number. The serial number and the
combination for this cable lock appear on a sticker that is attached to
the form at the back of this user's guide. We recommend that your IT
Administrator keep the form in case the combination number is
forgotten, misplaced, or lost.

computer.

Securing the Cable to an Object

Wrap the looped end of the cable around part of the selected
object.
Make sure you use a part of the object that will prevent an intruder
from slipping the cable off (for example, a table or desk leg with a
cross bar, or a drawer handle).

DEFCON PC Lock and Security
Base Plate
Included with your DEFCON Seralized VPCL is the PC Lock and
Security Base Plate for the security of desktop computers.
Using the DEFCON PC Lock
The PC Lock consists of a lock base, an attachment screw, and a
security plate. When attached to a desktop computer, the lock
provides a convenient anchorage point for your DEFCON PC Lock or
a notebook computer lock. The PC Lock does not require tools for
installation. However, you may want to use a screwdriver to securely
fasten the lock to your computer. You can use either a Philips or flat
head screwdriver. Avoid overtightening the screw as doing so may
cause damage to the screw’s threading, making it difficult to remove.

Using the DEFCON Security Base
Plate
1. Choose a solid location to attach the DEFCON Security Base
Plate: a piece of furniture, or metal cabinet. If you plan to use the
two screws, you can use the base plate as a template to pre-drill
the holes.
2. Use the abrasive pad, then the alcohol wipe to prepare the area
when you will attach the DEFCON Security Base Plate.
3. After the alcohol dries, remove the backing on the base plate to
expose the adhesive and place it on the prepared location. If
desired, secure the base with the two screws.
6

NOTE: When using the adhesive backing, apply at room temperature - 60oF (16oC),
and allow it to bond for more than 24 hours. Not recommend for to use in outdoor or
high humidity environment. Bonding to glass, ceramic tile, water-absorbent materials,
copper, brass, or plasticized vinyl without primer surface are not recommended.
Targus recommends using both adhesive and screw to provide maximum security.
Using only the adhesive provides marginal security.
4. Place the DEFCON Security Base Plate cover as shown and slide
it to the left or right to secure it in place.
5. Insert your DEFCON cable lock.
