Ergonomic Mouse
Introducing the Perfit Mouse Optical (PMO). Now available in Soft Touch Black.
Evolving from the original patented shape, the new versions maintain the ergonomic integrity of the time-
tested form while adding new productivity enhancing features.
The original Perfit Mouse, introduced in 1995, has provided over 100,000 users with unparalleled comfort
and performance. Years later, the Perfit Mouse continues to be highly recommended by safety specialists,
health professionals and ergonomists. In many instances, the Perfit Mouse is the only solution for eliminating
or reducing hand and wrist discomfort while maintaining a high level of productivity.
Proactive companies use the Perfit Mouse on mouse intensive workstations because it is highly
effective in preventing mouse related injuries.
What's the secret? Through years of testing we have discovered a unique posture for the fingers, thumb and
palm that is not only great for rapid target acquisition, but also allows maximum muscle and tendon
variation throughout point and click operations. Variation is only one of the keys. We also found that when
the hand is placed in this balanced posture, local hand muscles come into play.
The new optical versions add the latest technology to the unique design of the original Perfit Mouse. A high
precision optical sensor provides excellent cursor control. The Perfit Mouse Optical places a scroll wheel
above the thumb support, rather than on the top of the mouse to reduce the strain on the index finger,
which is already heavily used for the primary mouse click. At the bottom of the integrated Thumb Support is
the innovative two-position side rocker switch which gives quick and effortless access to two additional
programmable buttons.
Stop mouse related pain and discover the comfort and performance of the Perfit Mouse Optical.
Key Features
800dpi Precision Optical Tracking
Twice the tracking precision of many other optical mice. No performance degradation due to dirt
buildup like "ball" style mechanisms.
Thumb Support with Integrated Scroll Wheel & Two position rocker switch (Perfit Mouse
Classic Plus models do not have Scroll Wheel)
This gives you the user added Support, Control and Comfort. Allows you to move the mouse with
reduced Pinch Force which is known to increase the risk of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The Scroll
Wheel provides scrolling and the textured, rubber coated light touch two position rocker switch
provides access to additional repetitive commands. (See Important side note.)
Multiple Platforms
The Perfit Optical Mouse support both PS2 and USB connections, providing support for the majority
of todays and older computer systems.
Programmable Software
Using our software enables you to customize the Perfit Mouse Optical and accomplish tasks faster
and easier. Set the buttons individually. Go to www.contourdesign.com and download the latest
versions for your specific computer environment.
If your computer has a USB port, Contour strongly recommends you use USB connection
rather than the PS2 adapter.
Contour mice work with the operating system's (OS) built-in drivers on all of the ports shown below.
Contour provides drivers with additional features for each of the OS/port combinations highlighted
below.

Accessory Packs
Two optional accessory packages, the Freestyle Incline™ and Freestyle VIP™ can be purchased
to provide additional capabilities. These three configurations allow the user to choose features that
offer complete separation and/or adjustable front splay, adjustable or fixed tenting, plus integrated
and removable, padded palm supports.
Freestyle Incline™ Accessory Features:
The Solo keyboard mounts easily onto the Incline base providing a moderate fixed tenting angle
and adjustable splay of both keying modules. Features include:
10-degree fixed tenting of keying modules.
Adjustable splay (up to 30 degrees) of both keying modules.
Keying modules can be locked at any given splay angle.
Markings in 10 degree increments are embossed on the base, to facilitate reproducible splay
settings.
Padded palm supports.
The Solo keyboard can be easily removed from the base for individuals that require greater
separation but no tenting.
The VIP (V-Lifter and Integrated Palm Supports) accessories attach easily to the base of the Solo
Keyboard allowing quick and reproducible slope settings of 10 and 15 degrees.
Features include:
· Left and Right V-Lifters: the V-lifter quickly and easily alternates the slope of the keyboard
from 10 to 15 degrees.
· Integrated, padded palm supports ensures that wrists are neutral while resting.
· Use with or without the pivot/tether. The pivot tether connects the two keying modules of the
Solo keyboard together. Disconnect the pivot tether if greater separation is required.
· Provides a highly stable typing platform with no "bounce".

Solo Keyboard (long tether) $198.00
Solo Keyboard (normal tether) $165.00
