The work of prepari

38、ng International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non- governmental, in li

39、aison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0 collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publicat

40、ion as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard IS0 9241 -4 was prepared by the Technical Committee lSO/TC 159, Ergonomics, Subcommittee SC 4, Ergonomics of human system interaction. IS0 9241 consists of the following pa

45、TIONAL STANDARD 0 IS0 IS0 9241-4:1998(E) Ergonomic requirements for off ice work with visual display terminals (VDTs) - Part 4: Keyboard requi rernen ts 1 Scope This part of IS0 9241 applies to linear detachable keyboards designed for stationary use. It provides guidance on the design of keyboards u

46、sed for typical office tasks so that the limitations and capabilities of users are considered. It provides guidance based on ergonomic factors for keyboard layout arrangements, the physical characteristics of the individual keys and the overall design of the housing containing the keys. This part of

47、 IS0 9241 specifies methods for testing conformance by measuring the physical attributes of a keyboard. It also includes a proposed alternative test method for keyboards that do not conform to the physical design requirements and recommendations, based on a user performance test and subjective ratin
