Press the SET button to change to the next segment and select the next

 

character.

 

Have you entered the name completely? Press the SET button to store

 

your setting and to return to the top menu level.

 

Loading the factory-preset default settings

Reset

Via the “Reset” menu, you load the factory-preset default settings. Only the

 

selected setting for the pilot tone remains unchanged. After the reset, the

 

receiver is restarted and the standard display is shown on the display panel.

 

Activating/deactivating the pilot tone evaluation

Pilot

Via the “Pilot” menu, you can activate or deactivate the pilot tone evaluation.

 

The pilot tone supports the receiver’s squelch function (Squelch) and protects

 

against interference due to RF signals from other units. The transmitter adds

 

an inaudible signal, known as the pilot tone, to the transmitted 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.

 

Transmitters of the ew 500 series (first generation) do not transmit a pilot

 

tone and the receivers of the ew 500 series (first generation) cannot

 

evaluate the pilot tone. Nevertheless, you can combine the EM 550 G2

 

receiver with a transmitter of the first generation. However, when combining

 

units, please observe the following:

 

y With an ew 500 G2 transmitter and the ew 500 G2 receiver:

 

Activate the pilot tone function with both transmitter and receiver.

 

y With an ew 500 transmitter and the ew 500 G2 receiver or vice versa:

 

Deactivate the pilot tone function with the ew 500 G2 transmitter or receiver.

 

Activating/deactivating the lock mode

Lock

Via the “Lock” menu, you can activate or deactivate the lock mode.

The lock mode prevents that the receiver is accidentally programmed or switched off during operation. The lock mode icon on the display indicates that the lock mode is activated.

To deactivate the lock mode, first press the SET button and then press the / buttons to select “Off”. If you confirm your selection by pressing the SET button, the buttons can be operated as usual.
