Mark PBX System Forms 7a through 7
The Night Service with Group Assignment option allows you to assign all the
calls or trunks associated with a particular operator position to a Night Service
group. This makes it easier for users to answer after-hours calls.
Any call that comes in to the operator console while Night Service is in effect
rings immediately at each available telephone in the group. Calls ring
immediately even on trunks set for delayed ring or no ring.
You can create up to eight Night Service groups, one for each operator. There is
no limit to the number of telephones assigned to each group, and each
telephone can be assigned to more than one group.
Planning Form Instructions
Mark PBX System Form 7a, Night Service - Group Assignment.
Note: Form 7a has two sides and holds information for up to eight

In each column:
1. Write the extension number for the operator whose calls are being
answered in the "Operator Ext. No." space. (Refer to Form 2a.)
2. Write the extension number for each member of the group in the "Ext. No."
column. (Refer to Form 2a.)
3. Write each group member's name in the "Name" column. (Refer to
Form 2a.)
The Night Service with Outward Restriction option allows you to set up the
system so that only authorized users can place non-emergency calls when
Night Service is in effect. This prevents unauthorized after-hours use of
telephones.
