4. CONFIGURATION AND OPERATION OPTIONS DESCRIPTION. REMOTE CONTROL.
Configuration and operation of Phoenix STRATOS can be carried out remotely by means of the
application “AEQ ControlPHOENIX“ (AEQ Phoenix STUDIO, STRATOS, ALIO, MERCURY,
VENUS, VENUS V2 and VENUS V3 Audiocodecs Configuration and Control Software).
IMPORTANT NOTE: For that purpose, the equipment must be previously configured to accept
remote control connections (see section 3.1.7 of this manual).
The version that is provided together with the equipment (2.2.1.7 or higher) can control up to 2
units per software instance. If you need to manage more than 2 Phoenix audiocodecs at the
same time, please contact AEQ sales department to purchase a multicodec-license for “AEQ
ControlPHOENIX“.
Furthermore, version 2.2.1.7 (or higher) does NOT allow you to control units with CPU version
5.50 or higher and units with previous versions SIMULTANEOUSLY. In that case, these last
ones should be upgraded to version 5.50 or higher.
Please have the user manual of this application at hand. Install and configure it and add the
equipment to the controlled equipments list in order to follow the explanations in this and
following chapters step by step. This manual will describe the technical characteristics of the
most complex options only, while the detailed operation is detailed in “AEQ ControlPHOENIX”
user’s manual.
