DAB RADIO MODE

GETTING READY FOR DAB OPERATION

Please ensure that the antenna is attached and extended before
operation in DAB Mode.

To enter DAB MODE, press the button on the front panel, or press
the button until the DAB Mode intro screen is displayed.

When in DAB MODE for the fi rst time, SUPERSYSTEM will automatically
perform a full scan to see what stations are being broadcast in your
area, before storing them alphabetically in the memory.

It may be necessary to perform a manual scan from time to time, in
order to update the station list. This may be required for any one of
the following reasons:

1. Station availability can change from time to time as new stations
appear, or existing stations cease broadcasting.

2. If reception was poor during the initial automatic scan, for
example the antenna was not attached or completely extended,
it may be that the station list is incomplete or even empty.

3. If you have poor reception on some of the stations (resulting in
broken or poor quality audio), you may wish to list only stations that
have a strong signal strength.

To start a manual scan, press the button then select SCAN from
the menu list.

When the scan is complete, SUPERSYSTEM will list all available stations.

To remove stations that are listed but unavailable, press then
choose PRUNE INVALID. When asked whether you wish to “remove all
invalid stations”, select YES.

BLUETOOTH MODE

Wirelessly stream music from your Bluetooth smartphone, tablet, laptop or other
Bluetooth enabled device directly to SUPERSYSTEM, without the need for physical
docking or connection.

PAIRING WITH BLUETOOTH DEVICES

‘Pairing’ occurs when two Bluetooth devices talk to each other and establish a
connection. This connection is stored in the memory of both devices, meaning
that once you ‘pair’ a particular device with SUPERSYSTEM, you shouldn’t have to
go through the pairing process again.

HOW TO PAIR A BLUETOOTH DEVICE WITH SUPERSYSTEM

To enter BLUETOOTH MODE, press the button on the front panel, or press the
button until the BLUETOOTH Mode intro screen is displayed.

On your Bluetooth device, ensure that Bluetooth is enabled then initiate a ‘Search’
for a new device. When the search process has been completed, your device will
list all the available Bluetooth devices in your close proximity.

SELECT “SUPERSYSTEM” FROM THE LIST.

Your Bluetooth device will confi rm when pairing has been completed, and
SUPERSYSTEM will now display a static Bluetooth logo on screen.

PASSKEY

During the pairing process some Bluetooth devices may prompt you to enter a
Passkey. Should your device require a Passkey, enter 0000.

Should you experience problems when pairing your device with SUPERSYSTEM,
please see the Bluetooth Troubleshooting section on page 42.

BLUETOOTH MODE

STREAMING MUSIC

Selecting and controlling music playback can be done in one of two ways: either
directly from the source device (smartphone, tablet or laptop etc.), or by using
the buttons mounted on the front panel.

Please note, the playback volume level can be independently controlled from
either SUPERSYSTEM or the source device.

MANAGEMENT OF MULTIPLE BLUETOOTH DEVICES

If you have paired only one Bluetooth device, on entering Bluetooth mode
SUPERSYSTEM, will automatically seek to connect with this device.

Should you wish to pair another device, press then select ‘BT Disconnect’.
SUPERSYSTEM will now disconnect its current Bluetooth device and enter pairing
mode again. This will allow you to repeat the ‘Pairing with Bluetooth Devices’
procedure.

SUPERSYSTEM will remember up to 8 individual Bluetooth devices. When you reach
the point of having a 9th device you wish to pair, SUPERSYSTEM will pair with the
9th device and automatically erase the oldest-paired device from its memory.

You can continue to pair new devices and SUPERSYSTEM will always remember
the previous 8 devices it has paired with.

aptX®

SUPERSYSTEM’S Bluetooth solution is equipped with CSR’s patented aptX®
technology, meaning that when it is used in conjunction with a device that also
supports aptX®, the streamed audio will be of CD quality rather than the MP3
quality of a standard Bluetooth stream.

SETTING UP A MUSIC SERVER

In order for SUPERSYSTEM to be able to play music fi les from a
connected computer, the computer must fi rst be set up for media
sharing.

UPnP media sharing allows devices like SUPERSYSTEM to play music
from a shared media library, navigating through tag menus such as
Artist, Album or Genre.

If you are running a PC with Windows Media Player 11 or later (WMP),
or an Apple Mac with OS X 10 or later and a UPnP application
installed, you can connect SUPERSYSTEM and stream audio.

NOTE: iTunes does not currently operate as a UPnP media server, but
there are a number of third party software add-ons available that will
allow you to access your iTunes library (see page 24 for details).

SHARING MEDIA WITH WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER

The most common UPnP server is Windows Media Player (version11
or later) although other UPnP platforms and servers may be used.

To set up WMP for media sharing, performs the following steps:

SPOTIFY CONNECT EXPLAINED

Spotify Connect is a home audio experience that provides
effortless control and enjoyment of your music across a range of
devices, from your phone, to your tablet, to your SUPERSYSTEM
radio. SUPERSYSTEM owners with a Spotify Premium account can
now enjoy instant access to over 30 million songs from the Spotify
archive, all at superior audio sampling rates, simply download
the Spotify app for smartphone or tablet.

How It Works – You’ve just walked through the door, listening
to your favourite playlist on your phone. With Spotify Connect,
simply hit play on your SUPERSYSTEM (when in Spotify mode) and
the music instantly fi res up, right where you left off – ensuring you
never miss a beat. Now pick up your phone or tablet to keep
controlling the music from your sofa, or seamlessly switch the
sound to another Spotify Connect enabled product in another
room.

The Beat Goes On – With Spotify Connect you don’t need to rely
on unstable connections to stream music between your devices.
You can make calls, play a game, or watch a video – you can
even take your phone or tablet out of range and the music will
just keep playing.

To use Spotify Connect, Revo SUPERSYSTEM owners are required
to download the Spotify app for their smartphone or tablet (iOS
or Android), and have an active Spotify Premium account. A free
30-day trial is available, for more details visit www.spotify.com/
freetrial/

*For service availability in your country, check www.spotify.com

SPOTIFY CONNECT

To initiate Spotify on SUPERSYSTEM, fi rstly ensure that both your
SUPERSYSTEM and iOS/Android device are on the same wifi network and
that you are running the latest version of the Spotify app on your device.

As a song is playing on your device, tap the Now Playing bar to bring
up the Playing screen.

When the Spotify app recognises SUPERSYSTEM on your network, the
text ‘Spotify Connect Available’ will appear at the bottom of the app’s
playing screen.

Tap on the text to display all available Spotify Connect enabled
devices, then select your radio from the list.

The text colour at the bottom of the playing screen will change
to green and will now display the name of your radio (example
‘SUPERSYSTEM 002261D1718E0’).

You will notice that your SUPERSYSTEM is currently listed as “Revo
SUPERSYSTEMxxxxxxxxxxxx” (the 12 digit alphanumeric code is the MAC
address of your radio) in the Spotify App. If you would like to change this
name to something more personal (‘John’s SUPERSYSTEM’ for example),
you can do so using the UNDOK app (see page 31). Alternatively, do
as follows:

On the SUPERSYSTEM: Press Menu and select System Settings -> Network

-> View Settings. Scroll down and take a note of the ‘IP address’.

On your computer : Ensure that your computer is on the same network
as the radio, then enter the IP address into your browser’s address
bar (example: 192.168.0.34). This will allow you to view some of
SUPERSYSTEM’s diagnostics, but also change its name.

SPOTIFY CONNECT

Controlling Spotify Connect

You can now control Spotify from the app like normal; search for
and play your tracks, change the volume and add to playlists even
though playback is through SUPERSYSTEM. The next time you open
the Spotify app, playback will continue through SUPERSYSTEM.

The music can also be controlled using the buttons
mounted on your SUPERSYSTEM.

The audio is streaming directly from Spotify to SUPERSYSTEM, and the
Spotify app is only being used as a remote control for the service.
This means that your phone/tablet can be used for making calls and
can even be switched off without any disruption to the music.

Spotify Connect is a cloud-based service, therefore after activation
on SUPERSYSTEM, your iOS/Android device no longer needs to be on
the same wifi network to control audio playback.

SUPERSYSTEM also features a dedicated Spotify Connect mode. To enter
SPOTIFY MODE, press the SPOTIFY button on the front panel, or press the
MODE button until the SPOTIFY intro screen is displayed.

Use another Spotify account with SUPERSYSTEM

Your Spotify account details are now stored on SUPERSYSTEM.
To overwrite this with another Spotify account, simply follow the
activation steps again (see page 29) whilst running the Spotify app
using your desired account. Please remember that both your iOS/
Android device and SUPERSYSTEM need to be on the same wifi
network for the overwriting to occur.

Please note:

Your Spotify app will only recognise SUPERSYSTEM when the radio
is connected to the internet (i.e. in Internet Radio or Music player
modes)

To use Spotify when your radio is in non-internet modes (DAB, FM) you
need to select ‘KEEP NETWORK CONNECTED’ in the radio’s ‘NETWORK
SETTINGS’ menu. This also allows you to wake the radio from standby
using your Spotify app.
