Music source and BcmAmp
This section describes the music source for your BCM 5.0 system.
Music source
The Music on Hold and Background Music features provide music to users.
For these features to function properly, a music source must be connected to
the BCM.
There are three ways you can connect the music source to the BCM 5.0
system:
• You can connect an external music source through an analog input to the
BCM.
• You can use the IP Music feature to connect to Music Manager. Music
Manager is an audio player application that resides on the BCM 5.0
system and provides a streaming audio signal to the BCM 5.0 system.
• You can use the IP Music feature to connect to an external music source
on the data network.
You must connect the external music source to your network and it must be
accessible to the BCM 5.0 system. The external music source must also
produce a streaming audio signal that is compatible with the BCM 5.0 system.
Select Music Manager if you are using the IP Music feature to connect to the
music source available on the BCM. If you select Music Manager, you must
configure the BcmAmp application before you can use it.
Select Streaming Server if you are using the IP Music feature to connect to a
music source on the data network. If you select Streaming Server, you must
configure the Network Device before you can use it.
For information about connecting external music through and analog input,
see Installation — System (NN40170-303).
BcmAmp application
The audio files loaded onto the BCM 5.0 system are loaded into the same disk
space that is used for CallPilot messages. Therefore, every minute of audio
file loaded onto the BCM 5.0 system reduces the amount of message storage
space available to CallPilot by one minute. To ensure the proper operation of
both Music Manager and CallPilot, the following restrictions are applied to
uploading audio files.
• The maximum size of any single sound file you load onto the BCM 5.0
system is 150 MB.
• The maximum amount of disk space available for Music Manager audio
files is 1 GB.
