Remote controls are used any time a two-way radio base station is located away from the desk or office where communication originates. For example, a dispatch center for taxicabs may have an office downtown but have a base station on a distant mountain top. A Tone remote, also known as an EIA Tone remote, is a signaling system used to operate a two-way radio base station by some form of remote control.[1][2][3]
A tone remote may be a stand-alone desktop device in a telephone housing with a speaker where the dial would have been located. It may look like a desk top base station. Or, it may be an integral part of a computer-based console system with touch-screens in a dispatch center.
^EIA is the abbreviation for Electronics Industry Association, an industry organization that worked to create a standard format for tone remote controls.
^Any two-way radio remote control console manual will explain the basic principles of the respective equipment. One example is the 1970s-era, Maintenance Manual: Deskon II Remote Control Unit for Standard and GE Mark V Trunked Mobile Radio Desk Top and Wall Mount, part number LBI30968B, (Lynchburg, Virginia: General Electric Mobile Radio, unknown year). This GE manual covers tone- and DC-remotes.

The article does not describe this tone remote but confirms the use of the phrase to describe this system of signaling.
