4 Features
System Features
Night Service with Time Set
This section contains instructions for setting the system to automatically turn Night
Service on and off at the times and on the days of the week you specify. This
ensures that after-hours calls are handled properly even if an operator forgets to
turn on Night Service. Operators can still override the timer and turn Night Service
on or off manually. The feature can also be deactivated through system
programming for special conditions, such as a midweek holiday.
Planning Form Instructions
On Form 9c, Night Service: Time Set, write the time of day you want Night Service
turned on (Start Time) and off (Stop Time) for each day of the week. Use 24-hour
numbering, called military time; for example, 5:30 p.m. is 1730 in 24-hour
numbering.
If Night Service is to remain on throughout the day, for example on Sunday, do not
enter on and off times.
Night Service with Coverage Control
As of Release 4.1, Night Service Coverage Control automatically controls the
status of programmed VMS Coverage Off buttons.
When the Coverage Control option is enabled, a transition into Night Service
(either by pressing a Night Service button or automatically by the Time Set option)
automatically deactivates the VMS Coverage Off (Release 2.0 or later) buttons
(LED is off) and allows outside calls to go to VMS Coverage at night. When the
system is taken out of Night Service (either by pressing a Night Service button or
automatically by the Time Set option), programmed VMS Coverage Off buttons
are activated (LED is on) and outside calls are prevented from going to VMS
Coverage during the day.
NOTE: NOTE: NOTE:
Private network calls act like outside calls and do not go to voice mail when
VMS Coverage Off is activated.
When the Coverage control option is disabled, Night Service status has no effect
on programmed VMS Coverage Off buttons.
Planning Form Instructions
In the Coverage Control section of Form 9c, Night Service: Options, do one of the
following:
To keep the factory-setting of disabled, check the Disabled box.
To change the factory-setting and enable the Coverage Control option,
check the Enabled box.
