But a question that has come up is how to install the ONsite Aero V-Mount to your Tether Table Aero, especially if you already have an Aero XDC (external hard drive holder). The ONsite Aero V-Mount is the integrated mounting solution for the ONsite D-Tap to AC Power Supply and any standard D-Tap battery with a V-Mount, tucking the two components under your Tether Table Aero. In this article, we’ll show you how easy it is to set up your Tether Table Aero and how to install both the Aero XDC and ONsite Aero V-Mount and connect the ONsite D-Tap to AC Power Supply and accompanying ONsite D-Tap Battery with V-Mount. You’ll need your table, the Allen wrench that came with it, and the ONsite Aero V-Mount. Using the Allen wrench, remove the LAJO connector. Slide off the XDC from the table. Slide the ONsite Aero V-Mount on one side and slide the XDC on the opposite side. Important! The ONsite Aero V-Mount must be aligned first, and the XDC must go on over the Aero V-Mount. Align both over the connector holes. While holding both in place on the back, attach the screws via the front to the LAJO, securing both attachments at the same time.   Now that both are secured to the table, let’s connect the ONsite D-Tap Battery with V-Mount.     And let’s finish our set up by adding the ONsite D-Tap to AC Power Supply and ONsite Aero V-Mount. I’ve put our table onto a Rock Solid Low Boy Roller. Here’s the ONsite D-Tap to AC Power Supply and ONsite Aero V-Mount. The ONsite Aero V-Mount comes with hook and loop, peel one side off and adhere to the back of the ONsite D-Tap to AC Power Supply, then press the Power Supply to the Mount to adhere. Hang the ONsite Aero V-Mount with the Power Supply attached to the lip of the table. And plug it into the ONsite D-Tap Battery with V-Mount. Now you’re ready to get to work! You can further customize the Tether Table as you see fit to your workflow, including adding a Cup Holder, ProPad, or other Tether Table accessories.
