More Ergonomic Information _________________________________________________________________ I. IMPORTANT ERGONOMIC SAFETY INFORMATION ******************************************************************** Some studies suggest that long periods of repetitive motion, ** coupled with an improper work environment and incorrect work ** habits, may be linked to certain types of physical discomfort ** or injury. These include carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), ** tendinitis, and tenosynovitis. It is important to follow all ** instructions carefully. Failure to do so may result in CTS, ** tendinitis, or tenosynovitis. These instructions may not only ** help minimize your chances of experiencing one of these ** conditions, but will also help you to work more comfortably ** and effectively. Ensuring that your chair, work surface, and *
* the placement of the mouse are in the correct positions is ** important. In addition, you should take frequent breaks to ** avoid sitting in the same position for extended periods of ** time. See the end of this README for more important ergonomic ** information. ******************************************************************** _________________________________________________________________ II.

Adds mouse to the PATH statement.NOTE: Setup adds mouse to the beginning of your PATH statement.However, the end of your PATH statement may be truncated if itcontains too many elements.c. Deletes the following line (if it exists) from CONFIG.SYS: device=c:\mouse.sys For the mouse driver in Windows, Setup makes the following changes: a. Adds the following line to the load line in WIN.INI:[windows] section c:\mouse\pointer.exeb. Modifies the following lines in SYSTEM.INI:[boot] section mouse.drv=c:\mouse\mouse.drv[boot.description] section mouse.drv=Microsoft Mouse version 9.00[386enh] section keyboard=mousevkd.386c. Adds a group to PROGMAN.INI: groupn=c:\mouse\mouse.grp(where n = group number and \mouse=mouse directory) d. Setup updates to the latest CTL3D.DLL file to the Windows Systemdirectory (if it's not already there). e. If you have Microsoft Windows version 3.0, Setup installs WINHELP.EXE. 2.

Setting up with a Floppy Disk System Setup supports only hard disk systems and floppy disk systemswith two drives. If you are installing files onto a floppy disksystem that has only one drive, you must decompress and copy thefiles manually. EXPAND.EXE, a file-decompression program, isprovided on the Setup disk for this purpose. To install using a single-drive floppy disk system: a. Insert the Setup disk into drive A and type:expand mouse.ex$ b:mouse.exeb. When prompted by MS-DOS, remove the Setup disk and insertyour destination disk.c. Reinsert the Setup disk in the drive and type:expand mousemgr.ex$ b:mousemgr.exed. When prompted by MS-DOS, remove the Setup disk andinsert your destination disk. To load your mouse driver, type:mouseRun Mouse Manager to set pointer options, if desired.To run Mouse Manager, type:mousemgr If you install the software using a dual floppy disk system,set up the mouse software from drive b to drive a. 4.
