The RoWrite draws .54A of current so it can be hooked up to any power adapter that outputs exactly 5V and at least .54A. Smart Phone adapters are usually 1A while tablet adapters are 2 A so can be used.

It will take about 105 minutes to fully charge a completely drained battery with a 1A adapter. A fully charged battery will last about 8 hours. Note that standard USB ports on computers tend to be lower current and this would result in a longer time to charge the battery. 

The RoWrite pen takes a AAAA battery which is included in the box.

The RoWrite uses A5 size paper. To use paper other than the Royole RoWrite paper, you can fold standard A4 printer paper in half and it will fit (except for the two paper guides). It is critical that the paper not move during writing so that the pen strokes may be recorded accurately. It is also important that you not turn the page you are writing on. If you must rotate your drawing paper turn the whole tablet .

*Although the tablet will record whether you use paper or not we encourage you to not draw on the tablet without paper.

The Rowrite uses a standard D1 (mini-ball point) pen ink replacement. You can use the pen ink refill tool provided with your RoWrite to clamp down on the ink stem and pull the empty cartridge out. Use the same tool to help push the new refill all the way into the pen. 

There is 16MB of internal memory to store pen strokes in both space and time with pressure sensitivity. The more dense the drawing with lines, the more memory is taken by a page. 16MB will store between 20 and 50 pages depending on pen stroke density.

*Note: Transmitting internal memory to the RoWrite app erases it from the RoWrite tablet and clears the memory banks for more notes.

Green indicator flickers rapidly    Data transmission

* The green light of the Operating Indicator is significant because it confirms that your writing is being recorded.

A Button: Pressing this button will execute a data transmission of internal RoWrite memory to the RoWrite app in a Bluetooth paired device

B Button: Pressing this button will start a new page in memory. *Note that the system does not know when you flip a page. Pressing this button starts a new page in memory even if you do not start a new physical page. 

The RoWrite will record no matter what paper is on top. No matter the location or orientation of the paper, the RoWrite will record within the white frame marks on the tablet surface. It is important that you not turn the page you are writing on and if you must rotate your drawing paper, turn the whole tablet.

If you prefer a different pen type, color, or transparency than what you see once you start writing you may change the default by going to the setting menu and selecting “RoWrite App”. Under this menu is “Preset Brush” which allows you to set the default brush stroke. Once you are happy with the pen type, width, opacity, and color press the circular arrow icon to save it to memory.

Yes. To zoom in on your drawing, use the pinch-to-zoom method. Also, to view different areas of the zoomed image, use two fingers to drag the drawing to the section you wish to view.

The green light of the Operating Indicator is significant because it confirms that your writing is being recorded. If the green light does not light when you are writing (and the unit is powered up) you must make space by uploading the contents of the RoWrite memory to the RoWrite app. Also, check that your pen has the battery installed with the cap tightened all the way and also the distance of the pen tip from the tablet surface is 2mm. This is about 20 standard printer pages thick.

If the RoWrite is inactive for 20 minutes it will enter a sleep mode to conserve power. RoWrite can be brought back out of sleep mode by pressing the power button. RoWrite will assume you are on the same page as when it went to sleep. Alternatively, ensure you have checked battery life to ensure it is properly charged.

If the memory is full, new pages will not be recorded. When the light stops showing green while writing, you can simply connect to the RoWrite app, sync all the notes, and release the memory space of RoWrite 1. You can use RoWrite 1 with or without connecting to the app. When connected with app, pages will not take up the memory of RoWrite 1. If you use RoWrite 1 without connecting to the app, it will store up to 60 pages of notes for your daily use. 

When the battery indication light turns Red, the remaining battery is 30% and we recommend you start charging your device. After the device is fully charged, you can use it up to 8 hours and it can standby for over a week. 

When you first bring up the app, you will be presented with a page gallery which will show you all your individual notes and folders. Folders will show the first page contained within and show a number indicating how many notes are inside. Also, from the settings option (gear icon in the upper left corner) you can pair the RoWrite, set a default pen type, access device info and see battery info. You can also be linked to the Royole website for customer support or shop for accessories. The syncing option (circular arrows in the upper right) will upload any stored notes on the RoWrite. You will also see a large “+” in the lower right corner which will allow you to create a new note. The center of the main screen is filled with thumbnails of your stored notes. Tap the note to bring it up where you may edit or play the progression view (a video of the progression of your drawing or notes). Below each is the name and three note dots. These note dots, when tapped, allow you to change the name (pencil icon), export/share (folder with arrow icon),or delete (trash can icon). Holding the note dots for one second will allow you to merge notes or move multiple notes to a folder.

Open the RoWrite app on your device, ensure the RoWrite tablet is paired via Bluetooth, and press the “A” button on the tablet. The RoWrite will then upload all notes digitally to the app memory and will clear the tablet memory. Alternatively, the circular arrow sync icon on the main screen of the RoWrite app will initiate a sync.

To add/erase lines: press the pen icon in the bottom middle of the note to get into edit mode. A set of different writing instruments allows you to choose the effect. Touching one of the writing instruments will allow you to set the width and transparency of the writing. Touching the black dot at the bottom left opens up a color wheel that allows writing in different colors. On the upper bar an eraser icon allows your finger to remove ink from the note.

Writing and drawing on the app can be done with your finger or a tablet stylus. You can also edit in real time with your RoWrite tablet. Anytime you enter into edit mode and write on the tablet your pen strokes will appear on the note in the form of the writing utensil, width, and transparency that is selected on the app. The exception is the eraser which can be used only with finger or stylus directly within the app.

The Merge function allows you to combine two notes and create one. 

To merge notes: Go to main screen of the app and press and hold the three note dots on the lower right corner of the note for one second. The merge/move screen will appear with the note selected with a blue check mark. Select your other note by pressing it with your finger. You may then press the “Merge” text to merge the notes. Only two notes may be merged at a time. If you select more than two notes then the merge function will be disabled and you will only be able to move them to another folder. You may deselect a note by pressing the note again. The blue check will then disappear.

RoWrite allows you to organize your notes by creating folders. To do so, select the first note you want to be in that folder by pressing and holding the three note dots to the lower right of the note. You will see the Merge/Move screen. From here, select any other notes you would like included in the folder and press “Move”. At this point you will have an option to select an existing folder or create and name a new folder.
