Torus Power AVR Description
Torus AVR – Description
The Torus Power AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation) is a full-feature state-of-the-art power
transformer, 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.
The 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
readings and turn the AVR unit ON or OFF.
2) RS-232 is provided for connection to media control systems.
3) Two 12VDC triggers are provided.

Front Panel Display
Front Panel
The front panel display consists of a 2 line LCD and 1 push button.
Typical Display
Voltage Faults
If a high or low voltage condition exists for 30 seconds or more, a voltage fault is displayed and
the system shuts down (unless over-ridden by the user).
or
As the output power from the Torus Power AVR is shut down, all the connected components are
turned off. The AVR power switch remains in the ON position, although there is no power to the
load.
When the voltage has been restored to the normal operating range, the following procedure can
be followed:
• The Torus Power AVR can be switched OFF and then ON.
• Wait thirty seconds to verify the fault condition no longer exists.
• The connected equipment should be switched ON individually.
If the fault condition still exists, the AVR will require approximately 15 seconds to monitor the
incoming voltage, and the system will shut down again.
The user can program the AVR software to allow the system to remain ON, in case of fault (see
AVR software section for details).

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 IP 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 IP address
displayed on the LCD) into the browser window. Press ENTER and the software will open.
In case you forget your password, the AVR can be restored to the factory default password
avr by pressing and holding the button on the front panel for at least 10 seconds.

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 setting.
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 BAL models: 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: 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.

Warranty
Torus Power Inc. products are warranted to be free from manufacturing defects as follows:
• Five years from the original date of sale for toroidal transformers.
• Two years from the original date of sale for all other components.
The product warranty includes parts, labour and return shipping to the customer. Shipping to Torus Power Inc. for warranty repair
is the responsibility of the customer.
Warranty coverage is not transferrable and original proof of purchase is required for warranty claims.
In the event of a warranty claim, Torus Power Inc. will remedy the issue by repair or replacement, as we deem necessary, to
restore the product to full performance.
This warranty is considered void if the failure of the product or any component part is caused by damage or misuse.
Failure to fully comply with Torus Power operating instructions voids the warranty.
