Ergotron develops products that allow you to keep a comfortable posture when
working with a computer. This posture relieves strain on neck muscles.
Optimal posture, screen height: For an optimal work posture when
viewing a screen, the top of the screen should be level with or slightly below the eye
height of the user. To make sure each user can set the screen height to their personal
comfort, a monitor arm with sufficient adjustment range is needed. The adjustment range
needed depends also on whether you will
be using the computer for sitting or
standing use, or for both. Use the
screen height chart to determine how
much vertical adjustment is necessary
for your application.
Optimal posture,
keyboard height:
The keyboard needs to be level with
elbow height, with forearms and
wrists in a level position. As with
screen height, each user has to be able to set the keyboard height to their personal comfort. The adjustment range needed
depends also on whether you will be using the computer for sitting or standing use, or for both. Use the keyboard height
chart to determine how much vertical adjustment is necessary for your application.
Viewing distance: Set the distance to your monitor (“x”) based on the recommendations of the monitor chart
and your personal comfort. This distance is roughly an arm’s length. Ideally, select an Ergotron product with telescoping
functionality.
Viewing angle: Tilt the monitor back about 10° to 20° so the top and bottom of the monitor screen are the same
distance from your eyes. Make minor adjustments to eliminate glare as needed.
Laptop ergonomics: If computing for longer than an hour
or two, take the following steps for ergonomic wellness: elevate your
laptop so you can see the screen without bending your neck; connect a
separate keyboard and place it where wrists are flat while shoulders
and elbows are relaxed; pay attention to your posture.

Display Compatibility Guide
LCD Size in all charts is approximation only. Use LCD Weight as guide for choosing mounting solution;
exact capacity depends on thickness of display. Hole Mounts are width x height. Compatibility is predicated on the
assumption that displays are VESA compliant (hole mount is centered on display’s center of gravity.)
