1. Introduction
This manual provides detailed instructions for the setup, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your Revo SuperConnect Wireless Music System. The SuperConnect is a versatile audio system featuring Internet Radio, DAB/DAB+ and FM tuners, Spotify Connect, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth connectivity with aptX technology. It is designed to deliver high-quality audio performance and a wide range of listening options.
2. Setup
2.1 Unpacking and Placement
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure you have the Revo SuperConnect unit and the included remote control. Place the unit on a stable, flat surface, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and moisture. Allow adequate ventilation around the unit.
2.2 Connecting Power and Antenna
Connect the provided power adapter to the 18V DC input on the rear of the unit, then plug it into a wall outlet. For optimal FM and DAB/DAB+ reception, extend the telescopic antenna located at the back of the unit. Adjust its position for the best signal quality.
2.3 Initial Network Connection (Wi-Fi)
Upon first power-on, the system will guide you through the initial setup wizard. This includes selecting your language, setting the time and date, and connecting to your Wi-Fi network. Use the 'Select' knob and navigation buttons to enter your network password. A stable Wi-Fi connection is essential for Internet Radio and Spotify Connect functionality.
3. Operating Your SuperConnect
3.1 Power On/Off and Basic Navigation
Press the power button (usually located near the display) to turn the unit on or off. Use the 'Mode' button to switch between different listening sources (Internet Radio, DAB, FM, Bluetooth, etc.). The 'Menu' button accesses settings and options for the current mode, while 'Info' displays additional information. The 'Select' knob allows you to scroll through lists and confirm selections.
3.2 Volume Control
Adjust the volume by rotating the large knob located on the side of the unit. Turn clockwise to increase volume and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
3.3 Internet Radio
Select 'Internet Radio' from the 'Mode' menu. You can browse thousands of stations by genre, location, or search for specific stations. Your last listened stations will also be available for quick access.
3.4 DAB/DAB+ and FM Radio
Switch to 'DAB' or 'FM' mode. The system will automatically scan for available stations. Use the navigation buttons to cycle through detected stations. For FM, RDS (Radio Data System) provides station information where available.
3.5 Spotify Connect
To use Spotify Connect, ensure your SuperConnect is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your device running the Spotify app. Open the Spotify app, select a song, and then choose your SuperConnect from the 'Devices Available' list.

3.7 DLNA Audio Streaming
The SuperConnect can stream audio from a PC or Mac connected to the same network via DLNA. Ensure your computer's media server is configured to share content.
3.8 Setting Alarms
Press the 'Alarm' button to access alarm settings. You can set multiple alarms, choosing the time, source (e.g., Internet Radio station, buzzer), and frequency.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
To clean the unit, disconnect it from the power supply. Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to wipe the surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents as these can damage the finish. Avoid spraying liquids directly onto the unit.
4.2 Software Updates
Periodically check for software updates through the system's menu (usually under 'Settings' or 'System'). Keeping your SuperConnect's software up-to-date ensures optimal performance and access to the latest features.
