The System-Wide Settings tab includes features that apply globally, regardless of which application you are
currently running. Within this main tab, three inner tabs give you access to these features.
The Acceleration tab lets you adjust the speed of cursor movement.
The Click Speed tab allows you to adjust two things:
• the speed of the double-click, and
• how precise you must be when pressing left and right buttons simultaneously in order for the button presses
to be interpreted as a chord.
The Rest Reminder tab lets you set a reminder—a beep and/or an on-screen message—to prompt you when
you have been working for too long without a break.
Click on a tab to view or change its settings.
• When you first install MouseWorks, all of the buttons on your Kensington input device are set to perform
common mouse functions such as click, right-click, etc.
• If your device has more than two buttons, at least one chord is available for your use, and a default chord
response is assigned. To determine which combination(s) of buttons on your device will function as a chord,
refer to the illustration of your device in the MouseWorks software. You may choose which function you want
for the available chords, or leave the default settings in place.
You can use MouseWorks to change the settings for the other buttons, setting them up to perform any function
you wish. Any function that you can assign to a button, you can also assign to a chord.

Many factors go into creating a comfortable work space, including proper placement and adjustment of furniture
and equipment, good lighting, and other environmental considerations.
In this section, we make some suggestions about how you can work more comfortably. Keep in mind, however,
that these are only suggestions. Comfort is very personal, and only you can judge what works best for you.
Try to place the keyboard and input device so that your arms and hands are in a relaxed, comfortable, and
natural position. When the input device and keyboard are correctly positioned:
• Your forearms should be parallel or almost parallel to the floor and your wrists and hands should be in line
with your forearms. Your wrist should not be extremely flexed or extended.
DON'T
DO
Keep Wrist and Hand in Line with Forearm
• Your hands and wrists should be in roughly the same neutral position as when your arms are loosely hanging
by your sides. Your wrist should not be bent too much to one side or the other.
