This section explains how to setup the connection between the Revelation II and a PC and how to use
the PCS Engine Server.
Remember that, if you have added engines for use under “manage engines”, you can select them as
a regular engine in the Revelation II itself. Giving a good name is important to distinguish it from the
native engines in the Revelation II. For example if you have the engine Fruit 3.0 on your PC, name it
"PC Fruit 3.0". You will see this engine after a successful connect to the Revelation II and it will not
conflict with the engine names already build in.
As from version 3.10, the ‘’Get PGN’’ action is implemented. It will upload a file containing the PGN
data for the current game. Furthermore in version 3.10 a beep is introduced given from Revelation II
when a connection is established from the UCI server to the Revelation II.
Important: Please be advised that in certain circumstances this mode will fail during game play. This
is because the Bluetooth link fails at certain times from Windows to the Revelation II. We are
developing a work around for this. In the mean time we advise to use Revelation II in Bluetooth e-
Board modus in combination with a chess program instead of an external engine in the UCI Server.
This is not a failure in the Revelation II, however a problem in the failures arising in Bluetooth
connections.
