Service with it; fill in the calling group number for Automated Attendant. The

operator whose calls are being answered (see Form 2a).
2. In the Ext. or Calling Group No. column, write the extension number for
each member of the Night Service group or for a Calling Group (see

3. In the User or Calling Group Name column, write each Night Service
group member's name or the name of the Calling Group (see Form 2a).

Night Service with Outward Restriction

This section contains instructions for setting Night Service so that only
authorized users can place non-emergency calls when Night Service is in
effect. This prevents unauthorized after-hours use of telephones.
Calls to non-emergency numbers do not go through unless a password is
entered first. You can include up to 10 telephone numbers on the Night Service
Emergency List. Each number can have a maximum of 12 digits.
Once you specify that a password is required, the password applies to all
telephones in the system when Night Service is activated at any operator
position.
If users need to make after-hours calls and prefer not to enter a password, you
can set up an Exclusion List that exempts those people's extensions from the
password requirement. Extensions assigned to the Exclusion List keep the
normal calling restrictions, if any are assigned, when Night Service is in effect.
However, these extensions are not protected in any other way from
unauthorized after-hours use.
