Advanced Alert Concepts
There are two main alert
concepts, "one for rest" and "one for work":
Rest: A rest period is
45 seconds for the keyboard and 45 seconds for the mouse.
Work: The default
thresholds (minutes) for keying and mousing alerts are:
Keyboard Alerts: For
example (at default levels), if you are keying for 15 minutes, without a 45
second rest, you will receive a "keyboard level one" alert. If you
continue, without a 45 second rest, you'll receive a "keyboard level two"
alert after another 5 minutes of keying, and so on. As explained above,
this is designed to bring to your attention that it's time for a brief break
from keying.

45 second rest, you will receive a "mouse level one" alert. If you
continue, without a 45 second rest, you'll receive a "mouse level two" alert
after another 5 minutes of mousing, and so on. As explained above, this is
