Background Music (F19) - Avaya PARTNER ACS Installation And Use Manual

Background Music (F19)

Use this feature to provide background music through the speaker of an idle system telephone for
your work area. Background Music plays the recorded material from the Music-On-Hold audio
source.
Considerations
Background Music is available only if Music-On-Hold is active and an audio source is
I
connected to the processor module.
Background Music is available only on system telephones with speakers.
I
The Background Music feature broadcasts music over telephone lines. The performance of
I
music over telephone lines is a public performance under United States Copyright law. In order
for the performance of that music to be lawful, it must be licensed annually to the user by the
copyright owners or their representatives (such as ASCAP or BMI).
The Magic on Hold system includes the required license for the first year. This license must be
renewed annually.
Background Music stops when you make or answer a call, but resumes when the telephone
I
becomes idle again.
If a system telephone and a single-line telephone with a message waiting light are connected
I
in a combination extension, the single-line telephone's message waiting light does not light if
Background Music is on at the system telephone.
You can program a Background Music button on a system telephone to use the feature with
I
one touch. Use a button with lights.
Call Screening (F25) overrides Background Music.
