Handling and Maintenance
To ensure optimal functioning, please keep away from large (plasma) televisions, electrical power
devices, electrical signals and metal objects when the system is in operation as it may interfere with
the sensor board. If the Revelation II is having problems with the piece recognition, please check that
the table does not have a large metallic base or consists of large metallic elements.
Leaving the board and pieces exposed to daylight for longer periods of time may cause discoloration
of the board, particularly underneath the pieces. After use please store the board and pieces in the
supplied protection cloth bag and preferably in the canvas storage bag as well. The cloth bag protects
the Revelation II board itself and protects against the Velcro fasteners to stop them from damaging
the side stands and board surface.
We advise to use a clean and dry microfiber cloth to clean Revelation II. Avoid aggressive cleaning
solutions and only use cleaning solutions which are suited for lacquered wood surfaces. Cleaning of
the metallic front plate and the display should be done with cleaning solutions designed for
television screens or laptop screens.
Quality
This unique product is made from different materials all specifically selected to obtain the highest
quality. The board and side stands are (partially) handmade from natural wood or veneer and may
show small imperfections. The wooden chess pieces are handmade and may slightly differ in model
from advertised images and can also contain small imperfections. These imperfections are part of the
material handling and manufacturing process and as such cannot be avoided completely.
Modes of usage
The Revelation II is a versatile chess product and has some different usages:
1.
Normal usage: The Revelation II starts up in normal play mode. In this mode you can play
against engines that are standard included in the Revelation II. This is also the strongest
playing mode as the native onboard engines can reach high ELO levels up to 2800.
2.
DGT Bluetooth e-Board usage: The Revelation II starts up in a mode where the Revelation II
behaves like a DGT Bluetooth e-Board. For this usage you should install the drivers on your
Windows PC. This mode starts after holding
just before the right LED below square H1
lights up until the system is completely started.
3.
Emulation mode: If you have acquired this additional feature you can play against
emulations of the world championship winners during the 80's and 90's of the past century.
A separate manual can be downloaded for this on
www.revelationII.com
.This mode starts
after holding
just before the right below square H1 lights up until the system is
completely started.
