ERGONOMICS

To minimize fatigue, comfortably organize your work area. Position your tablet, input tools, and keyboard

for easy access without unnecessary reaching. Adjust your monitor so you can view it comfortably with a

minimum of eyestrain. For best results, position the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same direction

as your hand movements on the tablet.

treatment for your specific situation.

• Take short breaks between tasks to stretch and

relax your muscles.

• Use a gentle grip when working with your tools.

• Alternate tasks and tools throughout the day.

• Maintain a good posture at all times. Minimize

awkward postures and repetitive movements

that cause discomfort.

• Change your position if you feel any discomfort

due to your work position.

• For right-handed use, position the tablet so the

drawing (active) area is located to the right of

the ExpressKeys. If using the tablet as a

primary pointing device and mouse

replacement, consider placing it to the right of

your keyboard.

• For left-handed use, position the tablet with the

drawing area to the left of the ExpressKeys.

See configuring the tablet orientation

for details.

If using the tablet as a primary pointing device

and mouse replacement, consider placing it to

the left of your keyboard.

• If using the tablet primarily as a creative tool,

consider placing the tablet below the keyboard,

centered with respect to your monitor.
