Method 1: Standard Installation
Fixing Screw above HDMI Input
Use the following installation method if you are installing hd EZ lock on an HDMI Input with a fixing screw above your HDMI Input. hd EZ lock will work with various distances from the center of your HDMI Input, up to 3/8″ (center of HDMI Input to center of fixing screw).
To reduce the risk of electronic shock to yourself or others, or damage to your equipment, unplug your component from its power source before beginning to install hd EZ lock.
Replace the existing fixing screw located above your HDMI Input with the supplied M3x.5 6mm screw.
With your HDMI Cable unplugged, remove the existing fixing screw located above your HDMI Input. Using the supplied 2mm hex key, replace the existing screw with the supplied M3x.5 6mm button head screw.
Make sure the supplied M3 screw matches the thread pattern of the existing screw before replacing it. If the thread pattern is different, contact us for assistance.
Plug in your HDMI Cable and prepare to attach the Mounting Adaptor.
Slide the Main Body over the end of your HDMI Cable. Plug your HDMI Cable into the HDMI Input and loosen the screw above your HDMI Cable enough to slide the Mounting Adapter in place (approximately 1/8″).
Make sure the notches on the Main Body are facing away from the chassis.
Attach the Mounting Adapter the your component’s chassis.
Slide the Mounting Adapter over the screw above your HDMI Input and tighten using the supplied 2mm hex key.
Make sure the bottom of the Mounting Adapter is against the top of your HDMI Cable.
Insert the Main Body into the Mounting Adapter and tighten to complete your installation.
Slide the Main Body into the gap in the Mounting Adapter. Insert the included 6/32″ set screw into the threaded insert in the Main Body and, using your fingers to guide the Main Body, use the 1/16″ hex key to tighten the set screw tight enough to grip your HDMI Cable.
HDMI Cables 5/16″ high or less use the 3/8″ long set screw. HDMI Cables higher than 5/16″ use the 1/4″ long set screw. Do not over tighten. Tighten until you feel resistance, then an additional two to three turns is enough to hold firmly in place.
