Jacks for Auxiliary Equipment
3-6
Line Connections
Use these instructions only if the system has auxiliary equipment such as
Music-on-Hold.
Auxiliary equipment can be connected only on loop-start (LS) or ground-
start/ loop-start (GS/LS) jack types. You cannot use a line jack on a 100D or
400EM module for auxiliary equipment,
If you plan to use Music-on-Hold, designate a line jack for the music source
such as a radio, tape player. stereo system, or Magic on Hold equipment.
If the system includes loudspeaker paging, designate one or more line jacks for
the paging equipment. A maximum of three line jacks can be designated for
paging systems.
If you plan to use the Maintenance Alarm feature (an audible alert for system
maintenance problems requiring immediate action), designate a line jack for the
external alert.
To make it easier to add outside lines in the future, use the last line jack(s) on
the right-most module with either LS or GS/LS line jacks to connect auxiliary
equipment.

materials, you may be required to obtain a copyright license from, and pay
license fees to, a third party such as the American Society of Composers,

you can purchase a Magic on Hold system, which does not require you to
