The radio microphone adds an inaudible pilot tone to the audio signal. The
receiver detects and evaluates the pilot tone, and is thus able to identify
the signal of the matching transmitter and mute all others. The pilot tone
supports the receiver's squelch function.
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:
