Changing the Volume
The amplifier controls can be altered or switched off entirely with the small amplifier located
inside the unit, accessed via the rear door with the included key. The large dial in the middle
will alter the volume. The smaller dials will change bass and treble.
The amplifier can be switched on or off with the push-switch just to the left of the dials.
Opening the Top Panel
If you need to access the screen connections or components, the top panel can be opened to do
this. This can even be used to achieve a different viewing angle whilst playing.
To free the top panel, undo and safely store the two screws located on the back of the unit as
shown above. The screen can then be opened (from the back of the unit). The panel will remain
in the up position with the aid of the internal pistons.

In-Game Controls
When a game is loaded, a player game can be started with the Player Start button. A 2
player game can be started with the Player 2 Start Button. Pressing either of these buttons
also acts as inserting a virtual coin, should the game you're playing require them.
A game can be paused or quit at any time by pressing either Pause Button, where you will be
given the option to resume your current game, or quit back to the Pandora Games 3D menu.
Every time a game is loaded from the menu, it is loaded ‘from fresh’, meaning that high scores
are not saved between games, unless saved manually by the player using the saving and
loading system.
Saving and Loading a Game
Note: Every time a game is loaded, it is loaded ‘from fresh’, meaning that high scores are not
saved between games unless saved manually by the player using the saving and loading
system.
The system allows you to save your progress at any point, and then return to that point at a
later time. This is achieved by saving a “State”.
About “States”
On this ArcadePro system, a “State” can be described as a specific point or moment when in
the game. When you load a state, you will return in the game to the exact moment where you
saved it.
States can be saved or loaded at any point of the game.
On this system, there can only be one state per game. Each new state you save will overwrite
the last.

How to use
To access the save and load system, pause the game you’re currently playing using the Pause
button, then save the state by pressing the Player C button. You can resume the game by
hitting the Player A button.
To load the last state you saved, pause the game using the Pause button, then press the Player
D button to load the most recent save state. Resume the game by hitting the Player A
button.

Troubleshooting:
Wrong Language on Startup
There’s a slim chance that upon arrival, your machine will not be in English. This is an
occasional leftover from checks during production and is easily rectified.
. Access the Options Menu (See page 0)
2. Scroll down to Language (7th option from the top)
3. Press A until the language changes to English
4. Exit as normal
No Sound
If there is no sound on your ArcadePro system, check to see if the amplifier on the system is
switched on, turned up and that the cabling going into the amplifier system is securely
connected.
If problem persists after these checks, contact us.
Have Fun!
