Administering Night Service With Extra Alert - AT&T MERLIN 3070 Administration Manual

Administering Night Service With Extra Alert

If your system includes the optional Services Module, you can associate extra-alerting
devices such as bells and flashing lights with specific lines or line pools. Then, when
Night Service is activated, the device rings or flashes whenever a call comes in on
one of the designated lines.
For example, the Shipping Department at Primo Foods has an extra-alerting device,
a bell, mounted above the entrance to the warehouse area. When Frank administered
Prime's Enhanced Night Service, he assigned the individual line and the local line
pool that appear on the Shipping Department's voice terminals to activate the device.
Whenever Night Service is in effect, any call that comes in on the individual line or
on any of the lines in the local line pool causes the bell to ring.
Follow the procedure below to assign up to three extra-alerting devices to lines or
line pools. Remember that you can assign only one extra-alerting device to a par-
ticular line or line pool.

4. One by one, touch the button for each line that you want to activate an extra-
alerting device until the green light next to the line button shows the
appropriate code.
