Using an installation Wizard, HP DualExpress! guides you through the operating system upgrade which should take less than five minutes to complete.

Launching HP DualExpress!

The second processor must be installed and the PC booted. For now, Windows NT will still only recognize the original processor. Insert the HP DualExpress! floppy disk in the floppy disk drive and follow the instructions. When the upgrade is complete, the system reboots. This time a multi-processing system is recognized.

Removing, Replacing and Upgrading Memory on Kayak XM600 Models

IMPORTANT NOTE This text was updated in December 2000 and replaces all earlier

information on memory replacement in the HP Kayak XM600.

Replacing SDRAM

SDRAM was available on some XM600 models shipped before May 2000. Following an announcement made by the Intel Corporation that SDRAM memory should not be used with the Intel 820 chipset (the chipset used in the Kayak XM600) HP is replacing all SDRAM memory shipped with RDRAM (RAMBUS DRAM) memory.

To determine whether you have SDRAM or RDRAM memory installed, remove the cover of the PC. SDRAM models of the HP Kayak XM600 carry a Memory Expansion Card supporting one or two Synchronized Dynamic RAM (SDRAM) 100 MHz memory modules .

If a memory Expansion Card is installed, as shown below, then the PC contains SDRAM memory.

To carry out the conversion, you should contact HP Support. You will then be able to upgrade with RDRAM memory as described below.

The Memory Expansion Card is installed in a reserved memory socket on the system board (the third socket, furthest from the processor(s)). The two remaining memory sockets on the system board, RIMM0 and RIMM1 each contain a continuity module.

Removing the Memory Expansion Card with one or two SDRAM module(s)

RIMM0 and RIMM1 sockets each contain a continuity module

Installing Mass Storage Devices

Before Installing a SCSI Hard Disk (Selected Models Only)

NOTE You do not need to select a SCSI ID for Plug and Play SCSI hard disks

If you are installing an additional SCSI drive, you should configure an unused SCSI ID to this accessory. SCSI IDs range from 0 to 15 for

Ultrawide 16-bit SCSI. SCSI ID 0 is used by the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI ID 7 is reserved for the integrated SCSI controller (the default for narrow and wide SCSI devices).

(SCSI hard disks that support the SCAM protocol).

The total length of the external SCSI cables should not exceed 3 meters (approximately 10 feet).

You should assign an unused SCSI ID to the second SCSI hard disk drive (for example, SCSI ID 1).

The SCSI ID is usually configured with jumpers on the SCSI hard disk drive. Refer to the installation guide supplied with the drive for information on selecting a SCSI ID.

Some internal SCSI disk drives may have termination resistors that must be removed or disabled before installation in your PC Workstation. Refer to

the drive’s installation guide for more details and to see if there is a special installation procedure to follow.

Working in Comfort

Thank you for selecting HP computing equipment. To optimize your comfort and productivity, it is important that you set up

your work area correctly and use your HP equipment properly. With that in mind, we have developed some set-up and use recommendations for you to follow based on established ergonomic principles.

Improper and prolonged use of keyboards and input devices are among those tasks that have been associated with repetitive strain injury (RSI) to soft tissues in the hands and arms. If you experience discomfort or pain while using any computing equipment, discontinue use immediately and consult your physician as soon as possible.

In addition to the information on RSI given in this chapter, you may also consult the online version of Working in Comfort preloaded on the hard

disk of your HP computing equipment, or visit HP’s Working in Comfort web site at:

URL: http://www.hp.com/ergo/

About Repetitive Strain Injury

What is RSI? Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI—also known as cumulative trauma disorder

Because your comfort and safety are our primary concern, we strongly recommend that you use HP computing equipment in accordance with established ergonomic principles and recommendations. Scientific literature suggests that there may be a relationship between injury to soft tissues—especially in the hands and arms—and prolonged improper use of keyboards or other equipment requiring repeated motions of the hands and forearms. This literature also suggests that there are many other risk factors that may increase the chance of such injury, commonly called Repetitive Strain Injury.

or repetitive motion injury) is a type of injury where soft tissues in the body, such as muscles, nerves, or tendons, become irritated or inflamed. RSI has been a reported problem for those who perform repetitive tasks such as assembly line work, meatpacking, sewing, playing musical instruments, and computer work. RSI also has been observed in those who frequently engage in activities such as carpentry, knitting, housework, gardening, tennis, windsurfing and lifting children.

Page 64

4 Working in Comfort

What causes RSI? The specific causes of RSI have not been established. Nevertheless, the

incidence of RSI has been associated with a variety of risk factors, including:

• Too many uninterrupted repetitions of an activity or motion.

• Performing an activity in an awkward or unnatural posture.

• Maintaining static posture for prolonged periods.

• Failing to take frequent short breaks.

• Other environmental and psychosocial factors.

In addition, there have been reports associating the occurrence of RSI with the use of computer keyboards, mice, and other input devices. Also, certain medical conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, obesity and diabetes, may predispose some people to this type of injury.

What can I do to avoid

RSI?

What if I experience

discomfort?

Preparing Your Work Environment

Some people who use computers may experience physical discomfort during their use. This discomfort may be a symptom of a repetitive strain injury. Properly setting up and using computing equipment can help to minimize your chances of experiencing this discomfort. Well-designed and properly adjusted equipment alone may not be sufficient to eliminate all potential problems. Maintaining good posture and positioning when working on computers also has a significant bearing on your comfort.

If you are experiencing any discomfort, seek professional medical advice immediately. Typically, the earlier a problem is diagnosed and treated, the easier it is to resolve.

When using HP computing equipment, it is important that your work environment contributes to your comfort and productivity.

Your Chair It's very important that your chair provides a comfortable sitting position

and offers the following features:

• A stable base, such as five legs with casters. Make sure the

casters are designed for the type of floor you have in your workspace, whether it is bare or carpeted.

• A height- and tilt-adjustment feature. It should be easy to adjust

your chair height from 40 cm to 52 cm (15.5 inches to 20.5 inches) as measured from the top of the seat pan to the floor. If you are much taller or shorter than average, you may need a chair that can be adjusted beyond this range. Adjust your chair so that the work surface or keyboard tray is at elbow height and your feet are flat on the floor with your knees slightly bent below your hips. Ideally, the seat pan should be able to tilt both forward (minimum of 5 degrees) and backward (minimum of 10 degrees). If the chair has an adjustable seat pan, inclining the seat slightly forward will transfer some of the pressure from the spine to the thighs and feet. This will relieve pressure on your back.

64 English

Page 65

4 Working in Comfort

• A curved seat edge. The front of the seat should be curved and

finished in a “waterfall” edge.

• An adjustable back support in both height and forward and

backward tilt. It is important that the backrest correctly supports the lower part, or lumbar curve, of the back.

• A freely rotating swivel so you can move easily from side-to-side.

• Fully adjustable and padded armrests. The chair arms should not

interfere with adjusting the chair or moving it close to your work surface.

Seat Back Tilt

Seat Back Height

Seat Pan Tilt

5°-10°

Seat Pan Height 40-52 cm

Your Work Surface Ideally, you should be able to adjust the height of your work surface.

A simple way to ensure your work surface is at the correct height is to first adjust the height of the seat-pan of your chair. With your chair properly adjusted and your feet firmly on the floor, adjust the work surface height until your forearms are parallel to the floor when you have your fingers on the keyboard or other input device.

Your Work Posture Sitting in one position for long periods can be uncomfortable. To

minimize the potential for physical discomfort or injury, it's important that you maintain proper posture.

• Back - While sitting at your work surface, make sure your back is

supported by the chair's backrest in an erect position or angled slightly backwards.

• Arms - Your arms should be relaxed and loose, elbows close to your

sides, with forearms and hands approximately parallel to the floor.

English 65

Page 66

4 Working in Comfort

• Wrists - Your wrists should be as straight as possible while using the

keyboard, mouse or trackball. They should not be bent sideways, or more than 10 degrees up or down.

• Legs - Your thighs should be horizontal or angled slightly downward.

Your lower legs should be near a right angle to your thighs. Your feet should rest flat on the floor. If necessary, use a footrest, but double check that you have your seat height adjusted correctly before getting a footrest.

• Head - Your head should be upright or tilted slightly forward. Avoid

working with your head or trunk twisted.

• Overall - Change your position frequently and take regular breaks to

avoid fatigue.

Setting Up Your HP Computing Equipment

Make sure that all the elements of your HP computer system—monitor, document holder, keyboard, mice and other input devices, and headphones and speakers—are optimally arranged and adjusted to meet your personal requirements. The recommendations that follow will help you achieve this.

Your HP Monitor It is important that your monitor screen be clean and positioned correctly

to improve readability and help you work comfortably. Glare, high contrast, reflections, dirt and dust will interfere with what you see on the screen. The recommendations that follow can help you achieve a comfortable arrangement.

• The top of your monitor screen should be at or slightly below eye level.

Most HP monitors come with a tilt-and-swivel feature that makes it easy to adjust the screen position.

• To avoid obscuring your view, the screen should be positioned

perpendicular to your line of sight; that is, straight on.

• To avoid glare or reflection, try to position the monitor so the screen

is at a right angle to your window rather than in front of it. If reflection or glare persists, tilting the screen forward may help.

66 English

Page 67

4 Working in Comfort

• Maintain a comfortable viewing distance to the screen. Most people

prefer a viewing distance of approximately 46 to 76 cm (18 to 30 inches), depending on monitor size. Character size and the amount of space available on the work surface can affect this distance.

• Text should be easy to read. To help ease eyestrain, adjust text

attributes such as character size, spacing, and color. In addition, you will need to use the controls provided with your monitor to adjust the visual settings so that contrast and brightness levels are comfortable for you. High contrast and low brightness is usually the preferable combination.

• The monitor should be free from flicker. If the image on your screen is

not stable, the monitor may require repair or adjustment.

• When possible, use a program that has a simple user interface, such as

easily identifiable icons and pull-down menus. Also, screen information should be displayed in a structured and well-organized way.

Monitor Use

Specifications

4 Working in Comfort

Document Holders When keying in data from a hard-copy document, placing it in a

document holder rather than on a flat surface will make it easier to read. The following recommendations should be observed when using a document holder:

• The document holder should be at approximately the same height and

distance from your eyes as the screen, and as close to the monitor as possible to prevent neck twisting. Some users prefer a document holder mounted to the monitor while others prefer the document holder positioned between the screen and keyboard.

• If the primary task is to view documents rather than using the monitor,

the document holder may be placed directly in front of the keyboard with the monitor slightly to the side.

• To help reduce stress on your neck and prevent eye fatigue, try to

minimize the movement of your head and eyes while using a document holder.

The proper positioning and use of your HP keyboard is important when using HP computing equipment. Be sure to observe the following recommendations to optimize your comfort and safety:

• We recommend you place your keyboard in front of the screen or

document holder, whichever is viewed the most. Your HP keyboard has long cables so you can place it in the position that is most comfortable for you while you are using your system.

• Because HP keyboards vary in depth, you'll want to be sure that your

work surface or keyboard tray has sufficient room to accommodate your model. The keyboard tray should be wide enough to hold both the keyboard and mouse or trackball: 66 to 71 cm (26 to 28 inches).

• Your HP keyboard may have a kickstand that can be opened or closed

to raise or lower the keyboard angle. If you are in the correct sitting position with your elbows at about the same level as the work surface, you may not need to use it. However, if your elbows are below the work surface, you may wish to use the kickstand to raise the back of the keyboard.

68 English

Page 69

4 Working in Comfort

• An adjustable keyboard tray may be useful if you cannot adjust your

chair or work surface to the proper height for typing. It should adjust in height from 64 to 76 cm (25 to 30 inches) above the floor and tilt forward and backward to help you find the most comfortable position. Note that research has shown that there may be less muscle tension in shoulders and forearms with the keyboard tilted away from you.

• When using your HP keyboard, remember it takes very little pressure

or force from your fingers to activate the keys. Improper typing style— the use of too much force—can place unnecessary stress on the tendons and muscles in your hands, wrists, and forearms.

• Make sure that your hands are in a neutral position when you use your

keyboard. This means that your forearms, wrists, and hands should be in a straight line.

• The keyboard has a low profile to help prevent excessive bending of

your wrists while typing. Literature suggests that you should not bend your wrists sideways or more than 10 degrees up or down. Keep your wrists straight by moving your entire hand and forearm over to use the function keys or numeric keypad.

• You may use a palm rest to help keep your hands and wrists in a

comfortable and neutral position when you are not typing. Some HP keyboards come with an integrated palm rest. If you use a palm rest, see that it is rounded and padded, and flush in height with the front edge of the keyboard. Note that your palms—not your wrists—should rest on the palm rest. If you don't have a palm rest, try not to rest your wrists on a sharp edge, such as a work surface edge.

Mice and Other

Input Devices

Various aspects of using mice and other input devices may increase your risk of discomfort or injury. Observing the following recommendations may reduce that risk:

• As with the keyboard, try to keep your hand, wrist and forearm in a

neutral position while using your mouse or other input device.

English 69

Page 70

4 Working in Comfort

Headphones and

Speakers

• When using a stylus or light pen with a graphics tablet, don't grip the

stylus tightly. Keep your hand and fingers relaxed and try to maintain a neutral posture in your hand, wrist and forearm.

• If you use your thumb to rotate the ball on a trackball or spaceball,

keep it in a relaxed, natural shape, and maintain a neutral posture in your hand, wrist and forearm.

• Hold the mouse gently by draping your fingers over it. Keep your hand

relaxed and fingers loose. Do not grip the mouse tightly.

• It takes very little pressure or force from your fingers to activate the

buttons or scroll wheel on your mouse, scrolling mouse, trackball or other input device. Using too much force can place unnecessary stress on the tendons and muscles in your hands, wrists and forearms.

• If you are using a scrolling mouse, be sure to keep your fingers and

hand in a relaxed, neutral position when activating the scroll wheel. Also, this type of mouse features software that can minimize the number of mouse movements or button clicks.

• When using a mouse, trackball, stylus and graphics tablet, or other

input device, position it as close to the keyboard as possible, and keep it at the same level so you do not have to stretch while using it.

• Use a good quality mouse pad to enable the mouse to work most

effectively and reduce unnecessary hand and wrist movements.

• Be sure to keep your mouse and trackball clean. Regular removal of

accumulated dust and dirt helps ensure proper tracking and reduces unnecessary hand and wrist motions.

Listening to loud sounds for prolonged periods may permanently damage your hearing. To avoid discomfort from unexpected noise, always turn down the volume before connecting headphones or speakers to your HP equipment.

When you put on the headphones, slowly increase the volume until you find a comfortable listening level, then leave the volume control in that position.

If you are primarily using the mouse, place it in front of your hand or arm. If you are using both a mouse and keyboard, place them both at the same work surface height and close together. If a palm rest is used, the height should be flush with the front edge of the keyboard. Other items, such as your telephone or notepad, also should be considered.

• Monitor - Place your monitor so that the top of the screen is at, or

slightly below, eye level (up to 15 degrees).

• Head - Do not tilt your head forward by more than 15 degrees, and try

not to turn your head toward the side.

• Back - While sitting at your work surface, make sure your back is

supported by the chair's backrest in an erect position or angled slightly backwards.

• Arms - Make sure your arms and elbows are relaxed and loose, with

your upper arm perpendicular to the floor or slightly forward. Keep your forearms and hands approximately parallel with the floor with elbows bent between 70 and 115 degrees. Keep your elbows close to your sides (less than 20 degrees away from your body).

• Legs - Your thighs should be horizontal or angled slightly downward.

Your lower legs should be near a right angle to your thighs. Make sure there is sufficient room under the work surface for your legs.

• Feet - If after adjusting your chair you cannot rest your feet

comfortably on the floor, use a footrest, preferably one that can be adjusted in height and angle.

4 Working in Comfort

Overall • Look away from the screen from time-to-time to help reduce

eyestrain. Focus on distant objects briefly, and blink periodically to lubricate your eyes. You also should have your eyes checked on a regular basis and ensure your eyeglass prescription is suitable for working on a monitor screen.

• Remember to occasionally shift position and move your body. Keeping

your body in one position for long periods is unnatural and stressful. When prolonged work is required, take frequent short breaks. As a rule of thumb, a five or ten minute break every hour is a good idea. Short frequent breaks are more beneficial than longer less frequent breaks. Data show that people who work for long periods of time without a break may be more prone to injury.

• Changing tasks frequently will help prevent muscle stiffness.

Examples: alternating between keyboarding, reading, writing, filing, and moving around in your work environment, helps you maintain a relaxed posture. Occasionally stretch the muscles in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck and back. You should stretch at least as often as you take brief task breaks—at least once every hour.

• Discomfort may be alleviated by using alternative ergonomic designs

and accessories such as ergonomically personalized chairs, palm rests, keyboard trays, alternative input devices, prescription eyeglasses, anti-glare screens, and more. Seek additional information from the sources available to you, including your employer, doctor, local office supply store, and the Information Sources listed in the online version of Working in Comfort, preloaded on the hard disk of your HP computing equipment.
