Music On Hold (#602)
Description
This System Programming procedure activates or deactivates the MUSIC ON
HOLD jack on the primary processor module. The jack must be active and an
audio source must be connected to the jack in order to provide recorded music
or messages to callers on hold.

Considerations
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. For more information, see the  PARTNER 
II 
Communications
System Installation  guide.
The volume of the audio source can be adjusted using the music-on-hold
volume adjustment screw on the primary processor module. For more
information, see the PARTNER 
II 
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.
If you use Music On Hold to broadcast certain copyrighted music or
material, including songs or other material from radio broadcasts, you may
be required to obtain the permission of the copyright owner. One way to
obtain permission is to contact ASCAP, BMI, and/or similar performing rights
organizations, to obtain a license. Lucent Technologies disclaims any
liability arising out of the failure to obtain such a license, if required.
For alternative (usually pre-licensed) sources of music to use with this
feature, you may wish to contact Telephonetics International, Inc. at 1 800
446-5366. Or, you can purchase a Magic On Hold system from Lucent
Technologies, which does not require you to obtain a license.
