BackGround Music on an idle phone, if it's allowed, pressing 1 turns the BGM on and off.

Ringing comes from the ringer switch on the left side of the phone and system programming.
System programming is usually done from a display phone at extension 101 (or 11) and involves programs in the 400's for ringing (408-410 on a TA box).


You transfer a call in a couple of different ways, one is by pressing TRANSFER and dialing the extension, one is by putting the call on HOLD and calling them on the intercom to a specific line, and the 3rd is by just pressing the preprogrammed DSS button, fairly problematic in a phone that only has 12 buttons with lights.

The 7730 was first delivered with the TA series systems, but they are backward compatible with every KX-T series and forward compatible with even the latest Pana digital boxes of the TD and TDA/TDE/NCP series.

Since a TD system BGM is just a single press "1" on an idle phone to turn on or off, I'm hard pressed to understand what you mean about BGM being a key. If you press "1" on a display phone and it says BGM On, and it doesn't work, go back to wherever the system cabinet is and look for the BGM port on the side of the phone system. It probably means the source is turned off or disconnected.

BGM mode is the Back Ground Music mode.It means that the music is either playing or is paused in the background.

Does CID work on ANY phone in the system? The reason I ask is because prior to issue 7, a Caller ID card had to be inserted into the trunk card. If yours is older, it may not have the card.

Hi Mary

Which system are you using?
If you are using panasonic kx td 1232 then just press the * key keeping the handset on hook.

If you are using a panasonic kx tda system then just press the transfer button keeping the handset onhook.

To change the date you will need to goin the program mode by pressing the Program button followed by *# 1234. then it will show on the display sys pgm no : enter 000 and press autodial or enter. Then you can change the date.

Without looking up details on versions, I think you may have an early D1232. Look at the plate on lower edge/front and see if there is a number in a circle. If there is no version number, the serial number will tell when the system was made.
