• When operating in conjunction with UWP-D series 

transmitters, set the transmitters to the same compander 
mode.

• No audio will be output if the tone signal frequency is 

different due to inconsistencies in compander mode 
settings configured on the devices being used together.

• When the squelch function 

(page 7)

 is set to OFF, audio 

will be output even when compander mode settings are 
not consistent. However, phenomena, such as changes 
in output level, may occur in such cases.

1

Press the MENU button to display the RX1 or RX2 
menu, and press the + or – button to display the 
COMPANDER screen.

2

Press and hold the SET button for 1 second or longer.

The selected item starts flashing.

3

Use the + or – button to select the compander mode, 
then press the SET button.

The selected compander mode is configured.

UWP-D: 

Select this when operating in conjunction 

with Sony UWP-D series transmitters.

UWP: 

Select this when operating in conjunction with 

Sony UWP series transmitters.

WL800: 

Select this when operating in conjunction 

with Sony WRT series transmitters.

Transmitter and compander mode 
combinations

Configure the appropriate compander mode based on the 
transmitters being used.

Audio will not be output if the combination of 
transmitters and compander mode settings are not correct.

Using the Squelch Function

Using the squelch function allows you to suppress 
unwanted signals and noise while waiting for 
transmissions. Set the function to ON under normal 
circumstances. Set the function to OFF when you are 
searching for radio interference or external noise, for 
example.
The following squelch functions are available on the unit. 
However, the functions can only be enabled or disabled 
together and not individually.

• RF (radio frequency) squelch

Audio output is muted if the RF input level drops below 
the RF squelch level. The RF squelch level is fixed.

• Tone squelch

Audio output is muted unless radio waves that include 
specific tone signals are received.

• Noise squelch

Audio output is muted if the noise level rises above a 
specific level.

Be sure to lower the volume on all connected devices 
before performing squelch function operations. If you 
disable the squelch function while waiting for 
transmissions or receiving low-level RF inputs, for 
example, the connected devices and speakers may be 
damaged due to noise.

1

Press the MENU button to display the RX1 or RX2 
menu, and press the + or – button to display the 
SQUELCH screen.

2

Press and hold the SET button for 1 second or longer.

The selected item starts flashing.

3

Use the + or – button to select whether to turn the 
squelch function ON/OFF, then press the SET button.

Using the Infrared Communication 
Function

When operating in conjunction with UWP-D series 
transmitters, the frequency and compander mode settings 
configured on the unit can be sent and applied to the 
transmitter using the infrared communication function.
