Function 63: Message-on-hold (MOH) programming

MOH can be:
• A live feed from an external music source connected to the MOH connector located on the side of
the cabinet (see the ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual).
• One of three default, generic MOHs pre-recorded by the factory.
• One of up to nine custom MOHs loaded into the system by using a CD player or similar device connected to
the MOH connector.
Note: If ACD is used, we recommend that you use prompt 590, prompt 591, or a custom prompt without
periodic "voice-overs," since the ACD hold prompt also will be played while a caller is on hold.
Function 631: MOH source
This selects the source for the system (or only tenant 1, if tenant service is enabled) that will be played to callers
on hold.
Code Without tenant service enabled

* If desired, dialing off-hold can be disabled by your Installer.
Default: 592 (generic message-on-hold).
Notes: While any of the MOH sources can be assigned for tenant 1, MOH source isn't selectable for
tenants 2–8; if tenant service is enabled, each of these tenants has a fixed MOH source as indicated in
the table above.
For each tenant, if there is no customer-recorded message, the default, generic MOH source (592) will
be played, instead.
