Ergoniza Intelligent

Introduction to the user manual

This manual explains how to use Ergoniza Intelligent to create assessments, enter or capture postures and activities, define task conditions, run analyses, and review the results.

It is an operational guide. It shows what to do in each area of the interface and how to use the application’s main tools.

Difference between this manual and the Technical foundations

Ergoniza Intelligent provides two main levels of documentation:

  • User manual, which focuses on using the application, its dialog boxes and interface controls, and the recommended steps for conducting an assessment.
  • Technical foundations, which focuses on the technical principles, calculation criteria, models, and procedures used by the system.

Use this manual to learn how to operate a specific tool. See the Technical foundations for the methodological basis of an analysis or the technical meaning of a calculation.

How to use this manual

You can use this manual in three ways:

  • follow Quick assessment to conduct a basic assessment;
  • open the topic associated with the task you want to perform;
  • use the interface help buttons, which open the corresponding topic when one is available.

Each manual page focuses on a task or group of tasks. Where necessary, numbered screenshots and tables identify the main controls in each dialog box.

General recommendations

Before running an analysis, always verify that the data entered accurately represents the actual work situation. In particular, check the posture, loads, exposure times, and conditions specific to the selected analysis.

Ergoniza Intelligent results depend on the quality of the input data. An incorrect posture, an incorrectly defined load, or an unchecked task condition can produce unrepresentative results.

Contextual help

Some dialog boxes and interface areas include a help icon. Select it to open the manual topic associated with that tool.

Contextual help is intended to answer questions while you use the application. It is not a substitute for reading the complete manual when using Ergoniza Intelligent for the first time.
