"Pilot Tone"
The radio microphone adds an inaudible signal, known as
the pilot tone, to the transmitted signal. The receiver
detects and evaluates the pilot tone.
The pilot tone supports the receiver's squelch function
(Squelch) and protects against interference due to
RF signals from other devices.
Devices of the ew 500 G1 series (generation 1) do not
support the pilot tone function. Therefore, please observe
the following when combining a radio microphone or
receiver of the ew 500 G3 series (generation 3) with
devices from an earlier evolution wireless generation:
