Background Music
Availability: All versions.
Background Music (BGM) sends music from a customer-pro-
vided music source to speakers in keysets. If an extension user
activates it, BGM plays whenever the extension is idle. Incom-
ing calls and Paging announcements temporarily override (turn
off) Background Music. Background Music requires a customer-provided music source.
The system provides a single external music input source. Background Music and Music on Hold
share the same external source. For example, if Music on Hold uses a customer-provided program
from CD, Background Music uses this source as well. In DS2000, the external music source connects
to the CPU’s 8-pin mod jack. In DS1000, the external music source connects to the AUDIO jack. For
more on connecting a customer-provided music source, refer to the system’s Hardware Manual.
Automatic Handsfree is a
convenience for workers
who don’t have a free hand
to answer a call or use a
feature.
Broadcast music through
the telephone speaker for a
more pleasing work
environment.
