Work-Space Considerations
The work space is the total floor space required for efficient operation and
servicing of the work station. The work station can be placed on almost
any rigid table (see also "Dimensions and Weights"). For the maximum
comfort and convenience of your operator, consider the following:
•
The tabletop should be about 700 millimeters (28 inches) above floor
level.
•
The work space should be sufficient for the display, display attachment
unit, the system unit, the keyboard, source documents, and (if ordered)
optional devices; see "Dimensions and Weights." Allow sufficient space
behind the work station for the connecting cables.
•
The work station will need to be sited so that its power cords can easily
reach grounded power outlets. See also "Electrical Requirements" on
page 84 in this chapter.
•
The work station is designed to work under the normal range of office
lighting. The display unit should be sited away from the glare of direct
sunlight or other bright sources of light, to avoid operator fatigue.
•
The work station must be sited so that the vents on the various units
are not obstructed.
Dimensions and Weights
Figure 33 shows the space requirements for the displays, display
attachment units, system unit, and expansion unit. Figure 34 through
Figure 37 show the dimensions, weights, and (where applicable) cable
lengths for the individual units.
