Features
levels, your AVU1500 has Advanced Overvoltage Protection, which
automatically disconnects power from your equipment and restores
power automatically when the voltage returns to a safe level.
Pure Enjoyment
One part of enjoyment involves spending more time using your system
instead of setting it up! However, brownouts and blackouts can cause your
system to lose complex settings, and ultimately damage your valuable
equipment along with the overall quality of your home
theater experience.
Your AVU1500 is equipped with a battery to provide backup power in the
event of power loss or an outage. The battery-backup feature enables you
to continue enjoying your movies and music without interruption caused
by brownouts or momentary blackouts. For longer blackouts, you may have
limited time to continue watching and listening to your system, but the
goal in this scenario is to preserve your system settings and to allow your
recording equipment to continue recording so you don't miss your favorite
shows (e.g., your DVR can keep recording).
Pure Intelligence
Your AVU1500 has been designed with the right combination of
SmartStage solutions, enabling you to better see and control the shutdown
of your home theater equipment during a power outage.
Stage Shutdown
In the event of a power outage, your AVU1500's battery will automatically
supply backup power to all the equipment connected to its rear-panel
power outlets. However, like any battery there is a limited supply of power.
So, the AVU1500 shuts down your equipment in stages. Each time a stage
is shut down, battery power consumption is reduced, thereby prolonging
the remaining supply of battery power to your most critical devices:
