After Hours Mode - Programmable Time Feature Introduction
During a certain time of the day or night you can set the Call Blocker to enter into After Hours Mode.
This mode is designed to keep phones connected to the TEL phone port from ringing and allow calls to
be answered by an optional answer machine when it is enabled on a daily basis. If you run a business,
then you would use this After Hours Mode so all callers can leave a message. If your work or dinner
times are different from regularly scheduled times, you would use this mode so that you can get your
sleep or to completely avoid disruptive callers. During After Hours Mode, VIP callers can ring through
at any time regardless of the After Hours time settings. Invited callers can only ring through normally
when After Hours Mode is not enabled.
To use the After Hours Mode, you must first understand military time presented here. The clock on the
Call Blocker display converts the telephone company's supplied clock data into either AM or PM time. If
the morning hours are 1:00am = 0100 hours, 2:00am = 0200 hours, etc. until noon = 1200 hours and
then the afternoon hours are 1:00pm = 1300 hours, 2:00pm = 1400 hours, etc. until midnight = 0000
hours. So, to set a time for a business after hours beginning in the early evening until the next morning
or 5:00pm to 8:00am you would use the military time of 1700 and 0800 as the two numbers for your
After Hours settings. To set a time for dinner in the evening from 6:00pm to 8:00pm you would use the
times of 1800 and 2000. To set a time for early morning until lunch time or 1:00am to 12:00pm you
would use 0100 and 1200.
