DGT Bluetooth e-Board usage : The Revelation II starts up in a mode where the Revelation II behaves
like a DGT Bluetooth -Board. For this usage you should install the drivers on a PC running Windows
(XP or more recent) as Operating System. This mode starts after holding KEY UP just before the right
below square H1 lights up until the system is completely started.
It is possible to use the Revelation II as an input device for several chess programs like Fritz,
Aquarium, Dasher, Babas Chess etc. You will find a more extensive list on the website of DGT under

One version is for 32 bit programs and one is for 64 bit programs.
Most chess programs are 32 bits, so even if you have a 64 Operating system, you definitively need
the 32 bits version also.
On a 64 bits Operating system you should install both versions, on a 32 bits system you should only
install the 32 bits version.
The setup programs have names like this:
RabbitPlugin_2.0.15_Release_Feb05_Win32.exe
RabbitPlugin_2.0.15_Release_Feb05_Win64.exe
