Manual Revelation II 

Quick Start 

General 

Making moves on Revelation II is done by moving the chess pieces on the sensor board. The LEDs 
indicate the move made by the computer by lighting up squares. To operate Revelation II there are 6 
keys. With the menu system on the display you can control all functions of Revelation II with the 6 
keys. Revelation II has a permanent memory that can save most user data even if the system is 
switched off. Different sounds can indicate different events. The sound can also be switched off. 
 
Revelation II is supplied with a customized canvas bag to store Revelation II, the chess pieces and the 
power supply. A cloth bag is included for extra protection of the Revelation II itself.  

Starting up the system 

Power is provided by a regulated 12 Volts power adapter. It is strongly recommended to only use the 
provided adapter. For power outlets that are used in almost all countries there is a pin converter 
present. The adapter accepts mains voltages from 110 – 240 Volts. 
 
Revelation II will start up automatically when the power connector is inserted. The system shows all 
81 LEDs very shortly in sequence as a test and will then show the Revelation II splash screen.  
 

 

 
Revelation II then will show the lower line of LEDs to indicate different stages of starting. The LED 
right below square h1 indicates that the system has started in a correct manner.  
 
Revelation II will then show you the starting screen for game playing. 
 

 

 
The version number may be different after an update of the software. 
 
After placing the chess pieces in the starting position (as indicated on the miniature board in the 
display) you can immediately make your first move and start playing.
