Setting up Music-on-Hold
Music-on-Hold automatically provides music to a caller placed o n hold . Pro viding
music lets the caller know that the connection is still active. The system does not
provide music to callers in a multiple-party connection who are in queue, on hol d,
or parked.
Before you start
You need to determine the music source you will use, and obtain the necessary
circuit pack. Refer to DEFINITY ECS System Description for more information
about required hardware.
NOTE:
If you use equipment that rebroadcasts music or other copyrighted materials,
you may be required to obtain a copyright license from or pay fees to a third
party such as the American Society of Composers, Artists, and Producers
(ASCAP) or Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI).
Instructions
In this example, we administer the system to allow local callers and incoming
trunk callers to hear music while on hold. Note that if you use Tenant Partitioning,
you cannot set up Music on Hold this way. See ‘‘Providing service for multiple
tenants’’ on page 29 for more information.
