Revox S235 Joy Android App
Operating Manual
WELCOME With Version 1.1.39 of the S235 App, all of the control functions for Revox Joy products (S118, S119, S120, Symphony) can be done through an Android device (referred to here as Devices).
Installation Download the S235 App onto your Device from the Google Playstore.
Version number You will find the App's version number under Settings / Applications manager / S235. Please be aware that this App requires certain software states to be installed on the Revox Joy for it to work without any problems. You will find more about this on the Revox website www.revox.com.
Requirements Joy software 1.10 is at least needed for the S235 App with Version 1.1.39. The Revox Joy must be in Quickstart mode, to be able start it using the App. You can configure this mode with the remote control under Basic settings - Network. Alternatively, you can also call this mode using the "Start Up" button on the back of the device. The Revox Joy can be started up from standby within 3 seconds, if the Quickstart mode is activated. This increases the power consumption 2
compared to standby mode. You will find details about this in the Revox Joy Operating manual. If you want to benefit from the reduced power consumption of the Revox Joy standby mode and still want to operate the device with the S235 App, the Joy must be switched on using the S208 remote control first. A reliable WLAN connection must exist between the Device and the Revox Joy to ensure stable communication between the App and the Revox Joy. An interruption in the connection can usually be identified by the fact that the App no longer reacts.
Number of clients Only one device at a time can access a Revox Joy. It is possible that the connection will be refused initially, if an attempt is made to make a parallel access to the Revox Joy using a second device. In the background however, the second device attempts to establish a connection, which is normally achieved after approximately 20 seconds, if the first device is not insisting on a permanent connection.
Operating Manual
Revox S235 Joy App
OPERATION Start the App on your device. After a brief Welcome view (picture below), you will see a Device list, showing all the Revox Joy products found in the network. The App then connects automatically with the last Joy to have been selected.
Our example on the right shows the screen after 3 Joy Receivers had been found. It is however also possible to operate a Joy S118 or Symphony with the S235 App. If there is no current connection between the device and a Joy Receiver, this is indicated by a red line through the connection. If a connection exists, this is displayed with the corresponding IP address as shown in the picture below.

With other streaming sources such as the Music Server, USB or iPod, you add the required track by tapping and holding on the track entry until the Action menu appears:
There is an "Add to My Music at " option in the extended menu. If you select this option “…at Position”, you can select one of the 18 memory locations when storing your favourites. Within the Play view, you can control the volume or return back to the "My Music" list through Archive, using the buttons described above. Please be aware that depending on the current selection, Skip commands are carried out within the "My Music" entry. If, for example, an entry is a series of podcasts from a radio station, the Skip commands initially switches between the different podcasts before a jump is made to the next "My Music" entry.

Audio Server If you select Audio Server from the Source menu, you first see a menu of all the UPnP services found in the network. The entry S37-12345 for example indicates the corresponding Revox Audio Server for the Joy series, assuming that you are using one. Navigate to your music in the usual way by tapping on a menu entry. In some lists, the album cover is shown in front of the text. Whether a cover is displayed is entirely dependent on the UPnP service that you use to access your music collection and on whether a cover was stored during ripping. Programs exist where you can extend the metadata by adding cover images and you will find a lot of such applications in the Internet. Revox has had good experiences with the MP3 Tag program. The text displays are also entirely dependent on the metadata and the UPnP service used. You can scroll through the lists in the normal way. Large lists in the Music server have to be loaded in blocks like with the Internet Radio stations.
You can branch to the different menus using the Back, Archive or Source selection buttons and start a new search The Play view is essentially very similar to that of the Internet Radio. The three text lines above the cover show the name of the artist(s), the track currently playing and the name of the album. Below this, the album cover is shown. If no cover is available, many UPnP services display their own icon. If this is also not available, Revox puts a placeholder at this position.

Searching in archives You can also search for entries in most archives. To do this, click on the Search icon in the Tab bar
.
You can enter the search text and search parameters in the dialogue screen that now opens. Once you have entered the search criteria, confirm the start of the search with the OK button.
If a cover appears pixelated, this is usually caused by the cover resolution being too low or by the fact that the UPnP service scales down the cover, in order to achieve a higher transmission speed. Please check the corresponding settings in the UPnP service.

CD-Player
CD player switch-on behaviour
Here you can define how the Joy Receiver should handle the CD player switch-on behaviour.
[if required] The CD player is only switched on if the user switches from a non-CD source to the CD player source or if a wake-up event activates the CD player. Otherwise, the CD player remains in standby. If the CD player has been switched on by the receiver, it remains switched on until either another source is selected or the receiver goes into standby.
If there is an optional CD-Link connection to the Joy CD player, a further dynamic menu item appears in the Basic settings [CD player].
[Together with Receiver] As soon as the receiver is switched on, the CD player is also activated and remains switched on until the receiver is switched off again. This has the advantage that CD is read in immediately after the start-up and playback can start as soon as the CD player is selected as the source. Create CD-Link connection The CD-Link connection should only be established when all power has been removed. Next time the Joy CD/Receiver combination is switched on, the CD player must be switched on first so that the receiver can recognise it
32
Info: Quickstart + CD player If the Joy CD player is connected over CD-Link, the Quickstart function is activated automatically, which means that there is only a couple of seconds between the CD player or the receiver beings switched on and CD playback starting. It is not possible to deactivate Quickstart as long there is a CD-Link connection to the CD player.

[For Paired devices] The Joy Receiver is invisible to Bluetooth transmitters that are not in the Pairing list, i.e. no connection can be established between them. On the other hand, Bluetooth transmitters that are already paired will establish a connection immediately and start playback without any confirmation on the receiver side being necessary. [For Everyone] The Joy Receiver is visible as a Bluetooth device for other Bluetooth transmitters. Bluetooth transmitters that
are already paired can establish a connection immediately and start playback without any confirmation on the receiver side being necessary. In the case of Bluetooth transmitters that are not yet paired with the Joy Receiver, a connection request is generated that has to be confirmed through the OK button on the remote control. If an audio source is currently selected, a message appears about the request. Unpairing devices Bluetooth transmitters can be removed from the list of paired devices by keep touching the area with the Bluetooth tramsmitter that is to be removed. The following display appears:
Now you can either remove only the selected device or the complete list of paired devices. Bluetooth transmitters can only be added to the list through a new connection request.

Revox S235 Joy Android App Audio format As well as the standard SBC and AAC audio formats (Codec), the Joy Receiver can also work with the high-definition aptX format. Normally, the Bluetooth source and the Joy Receiver communicate automatically using the best format. If this doesn't happen and only a distorted audio transmission or even no transmission at all takes place, the aptX format can be deactivated using the [Audio format] setting so that only an SBC or an AAC connection is established.
Selection: [aptX, ACC, SBC] [ACC, SBC]
Device Settings Basic volume The Joy Receiver's start-up volume level for the Bluetooth source can be defined through the Basic volume setting, which is then selected when you activate your Joy Receiver from standby mode with a Bluetooth connection. You should select a basic volume level that, together with your normal cell phone volume level, results in the desired start-up volume.
Note: The volume setting in the Bluetooth source, e.g. cell phone, tablet, etc., is transmitted with the Bluetooth signal. This means that if the cell phone volume is set to 0, the Joy Receiver will also remain muted even at the maximum receiver volume setting. The Basic volume level setting doesn't cause any change to the general switchon behaviour of the Joy Receiver in respect of other sources, i.e.: switch-off volume = switch-on volume up to Vol. 20, or if > 20, Vol. 5 in the case of a restart.

Device Settings Quick Connect The Joy Receiver can be restarted from standby directly by the establishment of a new Bluetooth connection, without needing the S208 Remote control or the Joy App. To do this, you simply make a connection from the Bluetooth source, e.g. cell phone to the Joy Receiver. So for example, you can start your music system through a simple Bluetooth connection as you enter your lounge. The volume level will be set through the Bluetooth transmitter.
Revox S235 Joy App Four conditions must be fulfilled for this automatic process to happen: 1. The Joy Receiver must be in Quick Connect mode. [Basic settings / Network / Quick Connect] 2. The Bluetooth function must be activated at the receiver. [Basic settings / Bluetooth / Visibility]
3. The Bluetooth transmitter and the Joy Receiver must previously have been paired, i.e. the Bluetooth transmitter must be included in the list of paired devices.* List [Basic settings / Bluetooth / Uncouple devices] 4. The Quick Connect setting must be activated [On] [Basic settings / Bluetooth / Quick Connect]

Revox S235 Joy Android App
USB supply If an external power supply is used to provide power for USB devices, there are high levels of equalising current because of the different USB voltages of the Joy USB and the external USB power supply. Additionally, some components in the Joy Receiver will receive power from the external power supply while in standby, which can result in malfunctions or incorrect displays. The internal USB power supply can be switched off through the USB supply setting so that only the storage medium's data lines are connected to the Joy Receiver and there are no unwelcome equalising currents.
The correct setting for storage media without an external power supply, e.g. USB memory sticks or Apple products such as iPod, iPhone, etc. is [internal Joy]. Use the [external] setting if you are deploying USB discs with external power supply. 36
