New in Version 3.7, 28 Aug 2008

The product enhancements in this version streamline the synchronisation of Wellnomics WorkPace with Wellnomics Risk Management, the integrated software solution that manages the health and safety of computer users.

  • Daily usage data can upload at shutdown: The daily usage data upload can now be made to Wellnomics Risk Management at the time of Windows or Wellnomics WorkPace shutdown. This feature spreads the load on the server when it is being used for synchronisation by large numbers of employees, and also allows greater support for end users that use a “Hot Desk” working environment.
  • Enhanced measurement for mouse movement has been incorporated into this release.
  • Support for reduced data upload to Wellnomics Risk Management. Wellnomics Risk Management can notify Wellnomics WorkPace 3.7 that some statistics, (such as individual keys, laptop usage, and statistics for individual applications such as Word and Excel) do not need to be uploaded during synchronisation. This feature minimizes the data held by Wellnomics Risk Management in the Wellnomics Risk Management Database and reduces synchronisation time.
  • Monitor Only mode: In this mode Wellnomics WorkPace works in the background, recording computer usage. The user does not see breaks and exercises but their computer usage data can be sent to the Wellnomics Risk Management system. Users who need to have Wellnomics WorkPace fully implemented can be easily and quickly identified. This mode is aimed at new users of Wellnomics WorkPace so that their risk levels can be assessed before their breaks and exercises routine is configured.
  • License period renewal: At the end of a license period, Wellnomics WorkPace now communicates with the Wellnomics server to find a new license, before it shows an expired warning. This is particularly useful when Wellnomics WorkPace is being rolled out over time in large organisations.

New in Version 3.5, 18 April 2007

Microsoft Vista compatibility.

Digital signing enabled: Digital signing is a technology that ensures that the software is in its original form and has not been tampered with. All WorkPace *.exe and *.dll files are now digitally signed.

New in Version 3.4, 21 September 2006

Blank Screen option: The Administrator is able to select that a blank screen appears during WorkPace breaks. This is useful to reinforce the actual break for users at the highest risk.

Standby duration selection: Standby in WorkPace can be useful for short periods when someone doesn't want to be interrupted (e.g. when making a presentation). However, sometimes the user can forget to turn WorkPace back on afterwards. This new function allows the user to select the duration of the standby after which time WorkPace will automatically resume.

Logoff safety guard: When daily or weekly computer-use limits have been reached a window appears to notify the user. The user can choose to ignore the notice and continue working, or log-off the computer. If "logoff" is selected the user will now be prompted to confirm that they wish to close down their computer. This will prevent any inadvertent shut-downs.

Nieuw in versie 3.2, 31 mei 2006

Vernieuwde registratiemotor: WorkPace 3.2 introduceert unieke mogelijkheden in het monitoren van beeldschermwerk. Middels ondersteuning van Windows Direct X en Windows XP Raw Input kan WorkPace nog meer relevante gegevens meten. Directe voordelen zijn meting van het gebruik van het scrollwiel van de muis en het onderscheiden van echte en computergegenereerde toetsaanslagen (door bijv. spraakherkenningsoftware). De nieuwe motor meet nieuwe statistieken die niet eerder konden worden gemeten, zoals wel/geen laptopgebruik en de identificatie van type muis en toetsenbord in gebruik. Dit maakt dat WorkPace risicofactoren nog nauwkeuriger kan meten dan voorheen.

Meten Stand-by tijd: De functie Stand-by in WorkPace kan handig zijn voor korte periodes waarin de gebruiker niet wenst te worden onderbroken (bijv. tijdens een presentatie). Echter WorkPace te lang in Stand-by laten staan kan risicovol zijn voor de gezondheid van de gebruiker. Met deze nieuwe functie kunt u de Stand-by tijd meten en gebruikers traceren die WorkPace teveel en/of te vaak in Stand-by plaatsen.

Nieuw in versie 3.1, 31 maart 2006

Desk mode: Op verzoek van velen, is de 'Desk mode' nu beschikbaar in WorkPace. Veel gebruikers gaven aan dat ze periodiek wilden worden herinnerd aan micro-, computerpauzes en het doen van oefeningen, zelfs bij geen gebruik van muis en toetsenbord (bijv. tijdens lees- en/of schrijfwerkzaamheden en bij gebruik van spraakherkenningsoftware). WorkPace ondersteunt dit nu met de nieuwe 'Desk mode' optie.

Door het inschakelen van deze optie wordt de Desk Mode ingeschakeld na een periode zonder muis- en toetsenbordgebruik. Dit draagt bij aan gezonde werkgewoontes tijdens actief en passief beeldschermwerk.
