MusiconHold
Evolution PBX provides internal music on hold for audio played when a caller is placed on
hold and as an option for Extension Groups while a caller waits to be answered. The
audio files must be MP3 format.
Note: You may also play recorded messages rather than music. Music on hold may be
referred to as MOH.
There is no provision for other sources of music such as an external music player. Only
one MOH ID is active at a time and music will be played exclusively from that play list
(except for Extension Groups, which may use any of the configured MOH IDs) unless the
MOH ID is changed.
To Change the Active MOH ID
1. Login to Evolution PBX, click the Administration tab then click Global Settings.
2. In the Hold Music ID field, enter the appropriate ID then click Save.
To Add, Delete, or Change Music On Hold
