Is there a way to lock the horizontal swing of the device in a selected position?

No - but that is why it works so well - it moves with your natural hand/arm movements.

No. But you wouldn't want to. I've been using this device for over 6 years, and it's the movement that makes it so comfortable, practical, and invaluable to the ergonomic health of your arms and shoulders.

no there is not. I have had the same problem so this device was useless. I would suggest that you try to return it but unless you are a lawyer or have the money to hire one, that is not an option. Amazon and the Ergo people have draconian measures in place to prevent anyone from getting a refund.

There is a button at the top right hand corner. You have to hold it down for approx 3 sec. The Android screen will appear displaying a "lock". Slide that lock to your right.

Guess there must be some problem with your model as mine does not do that. It stays locked in to position. I have to unlock it.

You can mount it upside down or right side up to get the door to swing in any direction you want. It doesn't appear to matter. There are no numbers or text on the door. Just two key locks and the quick entry lock.

Good news! Yes, you can do it. Skill calls it the manual mode. Just press the mode button 3 times until indicator LED turns red instead of green. And now you could tilt it at whichever angle desirable.

Yes, you can lock the beam and tilt it. Both the horizontal and vertical beam will be on at the same time and locked.

There is a noticable "detent" at both portrait and landscape positions. It doesn't lock, but it will stay put.

Twist it the opposite direction with it extended and it should lock in place

Yes you can. It automatically switches whichever way. BUT it is pretty uncomfortable and bulky to use in that mode. :)

I tried this position, but it does not work for me. I rarely take off the keyboard and prefer to use the table almost as a netbook.

If this is an issue, you can probably just invert the key presses to use a left-hand orientation. This is easy to do in most operating systems like windows.

There is a small switch on the side of the device. You may need to use a small precision screwdriver or a paper clip to flip it to the 'off' position.

Yes, it does. I use use the horizontal mode but it will work vertical, also.

There is no movement vertically in the locked position. When the position is changed, it rotates about 1 degree 2 or 3 times then locks in with absolutely no play.

If you mean the pivot then no you can't lock it. But you can adjust the stiffness very quickly

No. It should not move or swing. Make sure your screen brackets are securely anchored to where they are attached. Hope this helps.

Have the locking mechanism in the unlocked position and turn it clockwise to tighten it
