Loudspeaker Paging System

See “Loudspeaker Page” in “MERLIN II System Features.”

Music Coupler

DESCRIPTION

If your system has the Music-on-Hold feature, you must connect the music

 

source, such as a tape player, to the MERLIN II system with a music coupler.

 

The music coupler shown in Figure 2-25 provides a secondary bridged

 

connection so that the music source can also be connected to a loudspeaker

 

paging system to provide background music in sections of your building in

 

which paging speakers are located.

CONSIDERATIONS

You can use a radio, tape player, cassette player, or stereo system as a music

 

source for the Music-on-Hold feature. For more information about this

 

feature, see “Music-on-Hold.’'If you need to know the procedures for using

 

your loudspeaker paging system and the Loudspeaker Page feature, see

 

“Loudspeaker Page.

 

To avoid music distortion, be sure that the output level of the music source is

 

below 10 volts (i.e. approximately 12.5 watts across an 8 OHM speaker).

material may be required to obtain a license from a third party such as
