Night service
Step by Step
Night service
When the attendant position is not manned (for example outside
working hours) and "night service" is initiated, incoming calls are rout-
ed to a night answering service (e.g.porter).
To change from daytime to nighttime service, all the headset/handset
plugs must be pulled. Night service is active when the attendant at
the last operational console pulls the headset/handset plug or presses
Night service.
Night service option 8 also becomes active automatically if calls are
left unanswered for a period of time (programmed in the PABX) and
no other attendant terminal is operational. Stored automatic callback
requests and trunk reservations are canceled when the plug is discon-
nected.
For reasons of security, the handset or the headset must be disabled
when the working day is over to prevent unauthorized use (e.g.long-
distance calls).

Waiting calls displayed in the call processing layout must be an-

swered. New incoming calls are routed to the night station.
Pull the handset/headset plug to take your attendant terminal out of
service.
or Pull the handset/headset plug on the last operational console. Waiting
calls and new incoming calls are routed to the night station.
If a continuous signal is heard after the headset/handset is discon-
nected and the night service LED flashes rapidly, then you have "for-
gotten" a held/parked call or a call signaled on the Personal call tab is
waiting to be answered.
Insert the handset/headset plug immediately and answer the call.
