Special configurations in Windows
Please, do configure the relationship between mouse and cursor movement, as this is VERY
IMPORTANT for the general experience of using the ORTHOMOUSE. First, click “Start” /
“Control Panel” / “Mouse”.
Then, choose “Pointer Options / Motion” and, under the option “Select a pointer speed”, move
the slider to the right in order to choose the highest speed that you can use without losing
precision. Click to mark the checkbox “Enhance pointer precision”, and then click “Apply” and
“OK”. After a few days of practice with the ORTHOMOUSE, you may go back to this Control
Panel and select an even higher speed, which will drastically reduce the sideways displacements
of hand and forearm.
The ORTHOMOUSE is a very precise instrument, so we recommend that you use the Mouse
control panel of your operating system to set the pointer movement speed to 80% of the
maximum value. As your control and dexterity improve, you may increase the pointer
movement speed.
The configuration of the scrolling buttons is made using the “Wheel” option, in the Mouse control
panel. There you can choose the number of lines of displacement per click, or define the
displacement of a full page at a time.
