  • Standard Use (Raised Edges Up): This configuration is ideal for securely holding items like laptops, projectors, or small instruments that do not require mounting. The 1-inch flanged edges prevent items from sliding off.
  • VESA Mount Use (Flat Side Up): For attaching small monitors or screens, flip the tray so the flat side faces upwards. Use the included VESA 100x100 mounting brackets and hardware to secure your display.
