IGIROLLER
The
DigiRoller/DigiRoller Plus
measuring tool that lets you roll distances quicker and easier
than ever before! Replacing the tape measure and mechanical
measuring wheel, it measures linear distances and displays
them digitally, calculates area and volume, stores multiple measurements in memory, and performs other handy functions that
let one person measure faster, more accurately, and more conveniently. If your job involves measuring distances or taking
square footage, the new DigiRoller/ DigiRoller Plus is the tool for
you!
■ Large digital display located in handle for easy viewing
■ Measures and stores Length, Width, and Height
■ Calculates Area, Volume
■ Takes true “Wall-to-Wall” measurements
■ Measurement unit selection and conversion
■ Count and Auto-Count
■ Programmable “Fixed Distance”
■ Stores up to 9 different “Areas” or measurements
■ Ergonomic and durable
■ And much, much more!

Key Layout & Definitions - Both Models
The DigiRoller/DigiRoller Plus is unique to measuring wheels because
it has keys that allow you to store and manipulate the distances measured.
The following is a list of keys that you may use as you operate the
unit: (see page 10 for a list of LCD annunciators)
Power On/Off Key — Turns the unit on or off.
Length Key — Enters and stores rolled length value.
Width Key — Enters and stores rolled width value.
4 – DigiRoller/DigiRoller Plus
™
Area Key — Calculates and displays rolled area.
Units of Measurement Key — Selects desired unit for-
mat: Feet-Inches, Decimal Feet, Decimal Inches,
Yards, Meters, and Acres (display only). Each press
of this key will convert the displayed measurement
to another unit format.
Delete/All Clear Key — Deletes, or erases, the values
stored in the next key pressed (e.g., [DEL] [L] deletes
the current measurement stored as length, [DEL]
[ W ] deletes the current measurement stored as
width, etc). To perform an All Clear, press [Set]
[DEL] [DEL]. This key sequence will clear all stored
data and memory registers.
Recall Key — Recalls and displays the value of the
next key pressed (for example, [Rcl] [W] displays
the value stored in the Width key). [Rcl] [Rcl] will
bring back or un-erase a previously displayed value
that has been cleared or deleted.
Memory Add Key — Stores any displayed value into
permanent memory. When you store a value in
memory, it is added to the values you previously
stored in memory. Note that you cannot add two
measurements of unlike dimensions (for example,
you cannot add feet-inches and square feet).
5 – User’s Guide
Memory Subtract Key — Subtracts the displayed
value from permanent memory.
Set Key — Used to access special functions.
Add Wheel Radius Key — Adds the radius measure-
ment of the wheel to the total linear measurement,
to allow for true wall-to-wall distance.
Reset/Clear Display Key — Clears the display to 0.
Does not clear stored values.
Start/Stop Key — This key switches the unit between
start and stop modes. You will press this key to
begin measuring. When you are in stop mode, a stop
sign annunciator will display and the unit will stop
measuring. Press [Start/Stop] or [RESET] to resume
measuring.
Manual Count Key — Each time you press this key,
the unit will show the count in the upper left of the
display. The unit will count from 1-199, and then
will roll over and continue counting from 1.
However, if you press [Rcl] [Count], the accumulated total will display (for example, 203) on the right
side of the display.

DigiRoller Plus model (only)
The DigiRoller Plus model has an additional row of keys.
Multiple Area Storage Key — For each of the 9 area
number registers, you can store length, width, height,
area, volume, and wall area.
Height — Stores a fixed height distance or a rolled
height for calculating cubic volumes and wall areas.
Volume — Calculates volume measurements from
entered or stored length, width, and height values.
AutoCount Mode — Places the unit in “Auto-Count”
Mode, allowing you to program a fixed distance to be
automatically counted. The DigiRoller Plus will auto-
7 – User’s Guide
matically count each time it reaches the distance you
have set (for example, it will count the number of
times you roll 5 feet), and show the number of times
it has measured this distance on the upper left of the
display.
Light Key — Turns the display back-light on or off.
Using the Display

“Rolling” a Measurement
H e re’s how to take a measurement with the D i g i R o l l e r /
DigiRoller Plus:
1) Turn the unit On by pressing the [On/Off] key. If the display does not show zero (0), press the [RESET] key to clear

You will see the display registering your measurements.
NOTE:
If you move the handle up or down while you are using the unit, you will
add or subtract a small distance (4-8”) to any roll. For this reason, it is
important to try to keep the unit in the same position throughout the roll.
13 – User’s Guide
3) When you are finished measuring, press the [Start/Stop]
key again.
4) To store the measurement, press the appropriate key (ex.
[L] for length, [W] for width). If you do not store the measurement, you can then press the [Start/Stop] key again to
continue measuring.
5) If you have stored the measurement, press the [Start/Stop]
key to begin a new measurement. If you didn’t store the
measurement, press the [RESET] key to clear the display
then begin rolling.
