Features :
The Revelation Module set is 100% compatible with the interface used in the modular concept boards originally introduced by Mephisto. Please be advised that Phoenix Chess Systems has tested numerous boards regarding power issues. Some older modular boards (around 5%) have power circuitry which are not sufficient for this Module set. If you have questions regarding using a older modular board ask Phoenix Chess Systems.
In 2009 the module set was commercially released after a test period of two months. The module set operates in Munchen, Exclusive or Modular boards from Mephisto (later Saitek). Bavaria and S-type board are not compatible.
