More Details

* Contour RollerMouse Free3 supersedes Contour RollerMouse Free2

* Use the keyboard risers to customize the height and angle of your keyboard to find the most comfortable typing position
* The ultra-low (H: 19.5cm) and slim RollerMouse Free3 keeps your hands and wrists flat on a desk or table

* The fully open roller bar opening allows you to place several fingers, from one or both hands, parallel to each other. This improves control and precision while reducing and distributing the workload between the fingers

* Leatherette wrist rests. The integrated wrist rest is ergonomically designed to keep your hands, wrists and forearms flat. The wrist padding is slightly higher than the roller bar to avoid unwanted clicks.

* Choose between five cursor speeds ranging from 800 dpi to 1600 dpi for maximum precision
* The speed increases by 200 dpi with a push of a button. Five lights above the triangular button indicate your current cursor speed

Tip: New users may want to start with low cursor speed. Once familiar with RollerMouse, it is recommended selecting a higher cursor speed. For users with big screens, or multiple screens, the faster setting makes it easier to reach further with the same roller bar movement

* The controls are located near the keyboard. Everything you need to control your computer is within reach. This eliminates awkward movements and strain caused by gripping the mouse

* You can vary settings to adapt to thinner, more narrow or compact keyboards

* An optical sensor detects the cursor movement. It is placed at an optimal position to ensure consistent and reliable tracking. This predictability makes it easy for your fingers to move the cursor

* Adjust the amount of pressure required to perform a mouse click. Use the click-force tension slider underneath RollerMouse Free3 to choose from soft to firm settings

Tip: New users may like to start with a firm rollerbar click. Those familiar with RollerMouse may find using a lower click force faster

* The rubber-coated roller bar provides solid and precise cursor control with very little need for force. This allows for movement of the cursor with a light touch, which relaxes your fingers, hands and arms

* If the cursor cannot move further, simply force the bar slightly to the right or left until you hear a gentle click. This activates the end detection and the cursor can move anywhere on the screen

Tip: If you?re using multiple screens, the end detection function allows you to re-align the cursor position

* The roller bar?s low friction Teflon-coated bearings provides a consistent, smooth and light cursor movement. The bearings are protected from touch and dirt, making the roller bar maintenance free
