Welcome
Congratulations on purchasing your new
Revox cd player and thank you for your
trust in our high-quality products.
Before you start using your Joy cd player
Player, we recommend that you take a
look through this Operating manual, in
order that you can take full advantage of
the options and the audio qualities of this
device.
More than 30 years after the introduction
of the Compact Disc, Revox is again
offering a CD player that as well as
having an elegant appearance, shines in
particular through the quality of its
internal components. The latest digital
analogue converters built using SMD
technology to ensure short signal paths
and with a sophisticated power supply
are used, which is not only reflected in
exceptional audio data (see
Technical
Data)
, but also in the listening pleasure
they invoke from the first bar of the
music.
The CD drive floats on a rubber buffer
and mechanically, it is completely
disconnected from the housing. The cd
player will fit into every environment
thanks to its wide range of output and
control options.
The glass front panel with Touch
function makes operating the device a
tactile pleasure. Together with its solid
aluminium construction, the Joy CD
Player stands out as a true investment
component for life.

Setup
Please check the unit and accessories
after unpacking, to ensure that
everything is there and that there are no
signs of transit damage. Read the User
manual through carefully before starting
to use the unit. Keep the manual for later
reference.
A unit that shows signs of mechanical
damage or which has had liquid in it
should not be connected to the mains
supply.
Only use the mains cable supplied. The
unit’s power supply and connections
values (mains voltage, frequency) must
be checked before connecting it to the
mains.

Installation - Safety advice
Please follow the instructions in the
User manual supplied.
Do not position the unit close to strong
heat sources or in direct sunlight.
Please take note of the following, if the
CD player is to be installed in a cabinet
or closed shelves. Allow at least 5 cm
of free space around the device, so
that the air can circulate freely and
that there is no build-up of heat. Do not
cover openings on the back wall or in
the base of the unit.
It must be ensured that the correction
functioning of the unit's ventilation
openings is not affected by being
covered, e.g. by curtains, newspapers,
table cloths, or similar.
This unit conforms to protection class
2. This means that with this unit, the
ground cable is not connected to the
housing, in order to effectively
eliminate sound-damaging ground-
loops. With these network receivers
however, Revox uses the ground cable
for the reduction of noise fields. For
this reason, both the supplied cable
and the connection panel are fitted
with a ground cable.
The power plug should be removed
from the socket during longer periods
of non-use, for instance during an
absence.
Unplug the unit from the mains during
storms. Voltage peaks through the
mains power supply caused by
lightning strikes can damage the unit.
There must be easy access to the
power plug so that the unit can be
unplugged at all times.
Lay the power cable such that it
cannot be damaged. The power cable
should not have kinks or be laid over
sharp edges. It should not be walked
on or be exposed to any chemicals.
The last point is valid for the whole
unit. A power cable with damaged
insulation can lead to electric shocks
and represents a fire hazard.
Never pull on the cable when plugging
the unit in or out. Always hold the plug.
Liquids, flammable or other objects
should not be inserted in the unit’s
openings as this can lead to faults, fire
or an electrical shock.
Do not expose the device to splash
water or high levels of humidity. Do not
stand containers filled with liquid, e.g.
flower vases, on the device.
It is only designed for operation in
temperate, non-tropical climates.
Take note of and follow the safety
advice on the following pages.

S208 Comfort programming
Revox has created a S208 project for
customers who want to operate the CD
player in combination with a Joy series
receiver (S118, S119, S120, Symphony),
which contains a comfort operation
option with switch-on and switch-off
scenarios. This project is pre-installed
on all S208s from June 2014. It can also
be called up in the Joy S208 Download
area.
The project contains a dummy receiver
that takes on the identity of the receiver
that is already installed on the remote
control.
The following conditions must be met for the configurations contained in the
project to work:
1) Receiver - CD player audio connection:
Coax-1
2) The receiver should preferably be in Quickstart mode (ON)
3) Always target the CD player with the S208 Remote control (IR commands)
In details, the comfort programming consists of the following components:
•Switch-on macro
*CD
[Switch CD player and receiver on together]
•Mixed device
CD+Joy
[Combination of CD player IR control and bidirectional
receiver wireless connection]
•Switch-off macro
*OFF

Joy CD Player RS232 commands
The CD player can be controlled completely, including status feedback, through
the green RS232 screw connector.
Baudrate: 57600
Data bits: 8
Parity: No
Stop bits: 1
General
All number values are in the HEX format.
Command structure:
Each command contains a start byte 0x02 ($2: shortened way of writing 0x02), a
header, a data block (optional) and a stop byte 0x03. Start and stop bytes are
entered as HEX values; header and data block as String values.
The header consists of 4 bytes; the data block consists of a maximum of 10 bytes.
$2 “ZC CM RW LL D0 D1 ..” $3
$2 : Start
“ : Start of String
ZC : Target code (Start of Header)
CM : Command code
RW : Write: 0; Read: 1
LL : Number of subsequent data bytes (End of Header)
DX : Data bytes
..
“ : End of String
$3 : End
As the command records are receiver-specific, the target code (ZC) handles the
correct assignment of the received telegrams. Therefore, the same command
code (CM) can have different meanings, depending on the receiver.

External control cd player
17
Three target codes are used:
43 Drive
53 Sensor
56 Version
RW has no meaning with the drive (always 0)
LL just defines the number of data bytes.
(Please note: CD Link commands cannot be transmitted over the RS232 interface)
Example: Start Play in repeat mode
$2 “43 11 00 01 05” $3
$2 : Start
“ : Start of String
43 : Command to drive
11 : AC_Play [Mode] | CD80-
LW command with additional
parameter [Mode]
00 : without meaning
01 : Number of subsequent data bytes
05 : Data byte for additional parameter Mode | 05 = REPEAT DISC

Glass colour:
The value for the glass colour is written to the EEPROM and the sensor. This
means that the defined colour can be read out from address 0 of the EEPROM but
just changing address 0 is not enough for changing the colour.
Sensor configuration:
The sensor factory settings are located in the Flash and written to the EEPROM
the first time the device is booted up. Later changes over RS232 are saved in the
EEPROM. If you want to revert to the factory setting, using the command
Reload_Epr, the CD player can be forced to write the original Flash values to the
EEPROM on the occasion of the next cold start. All manual changes are then
overwritten.
