Introduction
The Roll-Up II belongs to a class of computer input devices called graphic tablets or
graphic digitizers. A graphic digitizer consists of a transducer (usually a handheld cursor
or stylus) and an electronic tablet work surface. The Roll-Up II converts the position of the
transducer into data for computer processing. Data output from the digitizer is in the form
of an XY coordinate pair that pinpoints the location of the transducer on the tablet surface.
Roll-Up II works with a wide variety of graphic application software programs. It can
be used to:
 Move a pointer on a display screen.
 Create and manipulate objects in a graphic composition.
 Trace a drawing (or other source material) to create an image on the screen.
 Select commands or functions from a menu of such items placed on the tablet
surface.
 Choose items from a pull-down menu on the screen.
 Determine dimensions of objects on drawings and blueprints.
