Background Music
Description
Background Music (BGM) sends music from a customer-provided music source to speakers in keysets. If an
extension user activates it, BGM plays whenever the extension is idle. Incoming calls and Paging announce-
ments temporarily override (turn off) Background Music. Background Music requires a customer-provided
external music source connected to one of two audio input minijacks.
❥ In DSX-40, the audio input minijacks are located on the equipment cabinet.
❥ In DSX-80/160, the audio input minijacks are located on the CPU PCB.
The external music source you connect to the audio input minijacks is typically a CD player or FM receiver.
The source, which you can also use for Music on Hold, must be compatible with the following specifications:
For more on connecting a customer-provided music source, refer to the system’s Hardware Manual.
