Background Music (BGM) sends music from a customer-provided music source to speakers in keysets. If
an extension user activates it, BGM plays whenever the extension is idle. Incoming calls and Paging
announcements temporarily override (turn off) Background Music. Background Music is available from
one of six sources: two audio input minijacks, and one of four PGDAD Module audio ports. The source
you choose in turn connects to a customer-provided external music source.
- In DSX-40, the audio input minijacks are located on the equipment cabinet.
- In DSX-80/160, the audio input minijacks are located on the CPU PCB.
The external music source you connect to the audio input minijacks is typically a CD player or FM
receiver. The source, which you can also use for Music on Hold, must be compatible with the
following specifications:
