A Guided Tour Of The Pantages G3
Front Panel
1. Power Standby Button - The infamous “Off” light. This button manually toggles
the main power on The Pantages G3 between normal operation and stand-by. This but-
ton will over-ride the rear panel remote 12 volt trigger, but normal operation will resume
when the trigger input is cycled.
2. Display Button - Shuts off the bouncing blue channel level indicators for those
easily distracted movie goers.
3. Channel Status LED’s - These cool blue LED’s show when the corresponding
channel is active and operating normally. They turn red if something has caused that
channel to go into protection.
4. Channel Level Indicators - Each channel has a ladder of LEDs to bounce along
with the music and show the relative audio signal levels. If you find them too distract-
ing, the DISPLAY button turns these lights off.
5. Protection Indicator - This indicator turns red when one of the internal protection
circuits (thermal, short-circuit, offset) have come into use. All the protection circuits
automatically reset themselves when the problem causing the fault has been fixed.
6. Rack Mounting (not shown, optional) - If your installations is in a 19” world; an
optional rack mounting kit is available for The Pantages G3. These rugged steel brackets
securely embrace the sides of this amplifier to mount it in a 5.25” (3U) rack space.
