GSS - III Game Show System Features and Specifications

Player Position and Lockout Circuit
The front of the player positions are functional, pleasing to the eye and feature backlit panels at each of the four player positions. During game play the lights in the front of the unit sequentially chase, which looks great and adds to the excitement of play. When a player is the first to lockout (also known as buzz-in), by pushing the heavy duty arcade type button, the backlit panel is illuminated on the front of that player position a "ding" sound is produced for amplification, the microphone for that player is turned on, and the master control console selects that player for score keeping.

Master Control Console
The controller cabinet is industry standard width of 19 inches and 5.25 inches high (3 rack spaces). The panel is divided into three sections, game control/reset, score-keeping, and audio. All of the scoring and game mode/reset push buttons are clearly labeled for easy control of game functions. Also incorporated in this controller are the multi-tasking CPU ICs. The CPU is the brain of the system which interacts with each individual player position. The first contestant who presses the player position lockout button illuminates their player position, blacks-out all other player position lights, initiates "ding"-sound effect, and activates the mic at that player position. In addition, the CPU automatically selects that position for scoring. The controller incorporates high speed digital technology for quick response time and long term reliability. Auto reset and team play are a couple of the additional features on the master control console.

Sound Section and Digital Sound
Each player position is equipped with a panel mount XLR jack for use with supplied gooseneck microphones. During lockout, only the microphone at that player position is activated. There are level controls for microphone master level, bass, treble, and sound effects level on the master controller. The output is line level to feed a mixer or practically any PA system amplifier. The pre-programmed internal sounds include a "ding" sound which indicates that someone has activated the lockout, a "warble" for reset or automatic time-up reset, and a catchy game show jingle which you can activate by the push of a button. Twenty seconds of user recordable space is provided so that you can record your own sound effects or jingle.

Score Keeping and Displays
Each of the player position front panels are equipped with 6 inch high visibility numeric displays for score keeping. The ones position is a constant '0" while the tens position can be changed by the push of a button on the master control console. The score can be increased (00,10,20,30 up to 90) or decreased (90, 80,70 down to 00) and can be seen up to 250 feet.

Player Position Cabinets
The cabinets of the player positions were designed to be functional and attractive. Both the lid, which turns into part of the base, and the player positions are covered with heavy duty cabinet carpet for long life. For additional beauty and contrast jet black and charcoal gray cabinet carpet are used together. The player position hit-panels are made of a durable PVC material. While in the transport mode each cabinet measures 40" wide by 15" high by 19" depth, weighs less than 65 pounds, and has three handles for convenient handling. Two chase way ports (right and left sides) provide easy running of wire to the center access area where all interconnections are made. This interconnection area is located behind a unique flip handle.

Modular Design
In order to achieve maximum reliability and ease of repair in the unlikely event of a problem, all of the internal components are of a modular design. Even a person with little or no technical ability could easily change a module in minutes. Because of this design, a factory module exchange program makes it a snap to repair. This is further enhanced by our one year warranty exchange program (see warranty for details).

Options and Enhancements
Custom backdrops, additional lockout buttons at player positions, powered and non-powered podiums, and mica finishes on player position cabinets are some of the available options.
