Enter the hour and minute that economy time ends in
military time. The same economy time is used for each
weekday; you cannot specify different economy times for
different weekdays.
When setting economy hours, use the off-peak rate period
defined by the phone carrier.
It is recommended that you end the economy hours a few
minutes before the end of the lower rate period to allow for
discrepancies between the Octel 50 system clock and the
carrier's clocks.
The economy time frame can overlap into the next day.
For example, Friday's time may extend into Saturday
morning. In this case, the hours that extend into Saturday
are still considered part of the weekday economy time.
