If Music-On-Hold is Not Active or if no audio source is connected, callers on hold hear silence.

The audio source must be connected to the control unit using an RCA phono plug. The Music-On-Hold input jack accepts a maximum input of 2 Volts at 50 Kohms. For more information, see the PARTNER Endeavor Communications System Installation guide.

If the audio source develops trouble (such as a bad tape), you can quickly turn it off by changing the Music-On-Hold setting to Not Active until you are able to solve the problem.
