Activating/deactivating the pilot tone transmission – PILOT
Via the “PILOT” menu, you can activate or deactivate the pilot tone transmisssion.
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.
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 transmitter with a receiver of the first generation by observing the following:

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