Placement and ventilation
Allow 1” distance on all sides when positioning the AVR for proper ventilation, and allow 6” behind the
AVR for adequate wiring space. Do not place heat-generating devices directly below the AVR.
Connecting components and using the AVR
Using the AVR is as simple as plugging in audio and video components to the outlets on the rear panel.
The order and position in which you connect your components will not affect the performance of the
AVR or your components. Connect the AVR to the wall outlet, and switch it on. Turn on the
components individually.
While the AVR has built-in software that can be accessed via the Ethernet connection, there is no need
for you to use this software. The AVR system provides all the standard features, performance, and
benefitsoutoftheboxbysimplypluggingitinasdescribedinthissection. YoucanusetheAVR
software to monitor the voltage conditions via your computer, and for such additional features as being
able toturn your system on/off remotely and change the duration of the displays backlight.
Torus AVR – Description
Torus Power AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation) is a full-feature state-of-the-art power conditioner,
isolating and protecting your system. Like all Torus Power products, the AVR series provides true
isolation (using massive toroidal transformers) and protects all connected equipment from the risk of
severe power line surges using series-mode surge suppression. In addition, Torus AVR provides stable
voltage to keep equipment running in the optimal range of 115VAC to 125VAC for any input voltage
from 90V to 130VAC. (International units operate within nominal input voltage such as 220V, 230V,
240V; Torus AVR keeps them operating within a range of +/- 10V. ) See table on Page 9 for more
details.
Torus Power AVR series uses a micro-processor to monitor and control the power provided to
connected components. The front panel display on the Torus Power AVR indicates input and output
voltages, and displays output current, as well as displaying fault conditions.
The Torus Power AVR is pre-programmed to power down the system when a high or low fault
conditions occurs (user can over-ride).
There are multiple interfaces built into the Torus Power AVR:
1) Ethernet interface with built-in web server allows any computer to view voltage and current
readingsandturntheAVRunitonoroff.
2) RS-232 is provided for connection to media control systems.
3) Two 12V triggers are provided.
Does your system need automatic voltage regulation?
Under ideal conditions, when the supplied power line is stable and dependable, you may not need
voltage regulation. In such an ideal situation, your equipment can operate within the normal tolerance
ofthelinevoltage.
In reality, the power supplied to most areas is less than ideal due to 0utdated power grids. In most
areas, the power regularly drops or rises above the acceptable range (in North America +/– 5V,
Europe/Asia/Australia +/- 10V) . These voltage sags, brownouts, and surges can stress components
and shorten equipment life. In the worst case, catastrophic events can destroy valuable equipment. In
such real-world conditions, Torus Power AVR can protect your equipment, and improve the quality and
enjoyment of your audio and video experience.

removing the 12 volts turns it off.
12V Fault Output
The AVR provides a 12 volt fault output through a jack on the back panel. The output goes to 12 volts
when a relay or voltage fault is detected. The maximum current that can be drawn from this output is
75 mA.
AVR Software
AVR software is resident in the microprocessor on the internal control board. There are two methods
to access the software.
1) Connect the AVR to the Ethernet port. Open a browser window on a PC that is connected to the
same network through another Ethernet port. Enter AVR (or the I.P address displayed on the LCD)
into the browser window. Press ENTER and the software will open.
2) Use a three way Hub, which is connected to an existing network. You then connect both PC and
AVR to the same Hub. Open a browser window from the PC. Type AVR, (or the I.P address displayed
on the LCD) into the browser window. Press ENTER and the software will open.

Each AVR unit has a unique MAC
Address which is factory assigned.
The IP address assigned to the AVR is
dynamically assigned and is displayed
on this screen as well as on the front
panel LCD of the AVR.
TheAVRcanbeprogrammedthrough
the web browser to automatically get an
IP address from the network switch or
router and this is the default setting
andshouldworkonmostnetworks.
Some networks require each PC or
device to use a fixed IP address and the
AVRalsosupportsthisoption.
Notes:
1. The output current (Amps) displayed on the LCD is the RMS reading of the load. It does
not indicate the peak current loads.
2. There is a 20-second delay built into the AVR system, to prevent nuisance switching. The
AVR will take approximately 20-seconds to change relay taps to switch to the proper
output voltage s etting.
3. North American models (15A, 20A):Torus AVR will keep the output constant within the
range of 115Volts to 125Volts, with an input voltage of 90V to 130V. Between 85V to
90V, and between 130V and 135V, the regulation will be reduced.
4. North American models (20A BAL):Torus AVR will keep the output constant within the
range of 115Volts to 125Volts, with an input voltage of 170V to 270V. Between 160V to
170V, and between 260V and 270V, the regulation will be reduced.
5. International models (4A, 8A and 16A):Torus AVR will keep the output constant within the
range of 240 ± 10Volts, with an input voltage of 170V to 270V. Between 160V to 170V,
and between 260V and 270V, the regulation will be reduced.
6. A drop in the Input voltage is normal when increasing the load on the Torus AVR. This is
a result of the impedance of the power line, and is a function of the distance from the
electrical panel.
Switch On Delay Feature
The Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) feature is designed to handle normal utility fluctuations
to provide the connected equipment with an optimal voltage supply. It is common when utility
power is restored after a blackout that the voltage supply is unstable for a few seconds. To
further protect connected equipment your AVR is equipped with a start up delay feature. When
the power switch is turned on or when the power switch is on and utility power is restored,
power will not be connected to the output receptacles until the delay time has passed.

The front panel power switch is also a circuit breaker. As a circuit
breaker, it prevents excessive current from entering the AVR.
When the power is on, the Switch is illuminated. When the breaker
trips, the switch returns to its “off” position.
Circuit Protection
Torus AVRs will shut-down if internal unit
temperature reaches excessive levels.
Thermal Protection
Per UL, CSA and National Electrical codes, devices with
line cords and plugs must not consume more than 80%
of a branch circuit’s rating.
While Torus Power AVR Units are designed to handle
well beyond these limits, they must be marked with a
maximum input current that satisfies the requirements.

Torus AVRs are high-power products. The outlets they are
plugged into should be sufficient to provide the current to operate
them without tripping circuit breakers within your junction panel.
Dedicated circuits are recommended. Balanced input products,
240VAC, require dual 120V phases (2 pole, 3-wire). Wall outlets
for 240VAC are rated at 250V and will likely require special
installation. Dedicated outlets, or any household or facility wiring
should be installed by a licenced electrician to local codes.
