Night Service Button (#503)
Description
This System Programming procedure identifies a button on the system phone at
extension 10 to be used to turn Night Service on and off. When Night Service is
on, all lines assigned to the phones of the users in the Night Service Group ring
immediately, regardless of their normal Line Ringing settings.
Night Service is useful if you want phones to ring after regular business hours.
For example, although Shipping Department workers do not answer calls directly
during the day, you want them to answer incoming calls after hours.

, the password must be entered
when turning Night Service on or off. In addition, when Night Service is on,
users in the Night Service Group can dial only numbers on the

day only, or night only). The status of the Night Service button at extension
10 tells the voice messaging system to operate in day or night mode.

prior to a power failure or
being used.
Considerations
A Night Service button must be programmed on the system phone at
extension 10.
Night Service must be programmed on a button with lights. This feature
does not work if it is programmed on a button without lights.
A user in the Night Service Group can receive an after-hours outside call
only if it comes in on a line that is assigned to that user’s phone. Line
assignments for extensions in the Night Service group can vary from one
extension to another.
Dialing restrictions for extensions not in the Night Service Group remain the
same as during normal daytime operation.
If you reassign the Night Service button, it is removed from the button where
it was previously assigned.
