OPERATION
Important note: When first installing the Pandora, both it and the computer must first be set up.
Once all connections have been made, turn on the rear panel Main Power switch. After the information pages
are displayed, the Standby LED will illuminate.
STANDBY
Once the Standby LED is illuminated, press the Standby button once. The Standby LED will blink for
approximately 30 seconds, then it will turn off. The display will be on and the Mute LED will be off.
Pressing the Standby button when the Standby LED is off will put the Pandora into Standby, at which time the
Standby LED will turn on.
INPUT Select Buttons
Select the desired Input button that corresponds to the rear panel input connector being used.
MUTE
Pressing the mute button will alternately mute or unmute the unit. When the mute light is illuminated, the
Pandora is muted. When muted, the volume is internally set to zero and the output is shorted to ground.
DISPLAY
In normal operation, the level setting is displayed and various indicator lights will be illuminated. When the
display button is pressed, all LED’s will extinguish. Pressing any button will turn on the display and indicator
LED’s for 5 seconds, and then they will extinguish. The only exception is standby, which will always have the
Standby light illuminated.
Pressing the display button while the display is off, or during the 5 second timeout period, will turn on the display
and normal operation will return.
Advanced display functionality
This unit contains the ability to sense the ambient light level in the room and adjust the display and LEDs
accordingly. While the factory settings will work for most situations, there may be times when adjustment to the
settings is useful. There are three main sections to the advanced display functionality:
Adjustment of display brightness
Adjustment of LED brightness
Restoration of the factory default settings
Adjustment of display brightness:
To access this section, first press and hold the “display” button, then concurrently press “XXX” button. This can
only be done from the front panel. It is recommended that once this section is entered, that all adjustments be
made with the remote at some distance from the unit, so as not to obstruct light from reaching the sensor. LED
#XXX will light, and the display will show two numbers in the range 00-15, one on the left display and one on the
right display. The left number indicates the light level that the sensor is reporting, 0 is darkest and 15 is
brightest. The rightmost number indicates the display brightness setting for that light level, 0 is darkest and 15
