The configuration and operation of the PHOENIX STRATOS unit are accomplished locally on
the OLED screen in the front panel or remotely by means of the application “AEQ
ControlPHOENIX“ (AEQ Phoenix STRATOS, ALIO, STUDIO, MERCURY, VENUS, VENUS V2
and VENUS V3 Audiocodecs Configuration and Control Software). In this chapter first option is
described. The OLED screen presents all the information and menus associated with the
operating mode of the audiocodec.
Initially, when the Phoenix STRATOS is powered up, for 5 seconds a welcome screen with the
AEQ logo and the name of the device is displayed.
Welcome screen
After the welcome screen, the display will show the MAIN STATUS screen indicating the
