Instruction manual
Features
When Night Service is deactivated by the system operator or automatically by
the system, telephones are reset to their programmed ringing options.
When a feature code is used to activate or deactivate Night Service and
Outward Restriction is programmed, the DLC operator does not hear an error
tone if an invalid password is entered and, unless a Night Service button is
programmed, cannot determine whether Night Service is active.
When both Night Service with Outward Restriction and Night Service with Time
Set are programmed, the system imposes restrictions automatically.
When Night Service with Outward Restriction and/or Night Service with Time Set
is programmed, Night Service is activated or deactivated for all system operator
consoles. If Night Service groups are also programmed, Night Service cannot
be activated or deactivated for each group independently.
When Night Service with Outward Restriction is activated, and a user with a
restricted telephone presses a dialpad button while on a call, the call is
disconnected, the user hears a fast busy signal, and the trunk is released.
When the dialpad is used, the system assumes that the user is trying to make
an outside call, which is not allowed because of the Night Service restriction
assigned to the telephone.
System operators can override Night Service with Time Set and turn Night
Service on or off manually.
Night Service with Time Set can be deactivated through system programming
for special conditions such as a midweek holiday.
An answering machine connected to a 012 module can be set up as a member
of a Night Service group to automatically answer after-hours calls.
External alerts, such as strobes, bells, or chimes, can be connected to an
analog multiline telephone by using a supplemental alert adapter (SAA) or to an
MLX telephone by using a Multi-Function Module (MFM) that is a member of a
Night Service group. The external alert sounds or lights when a Night Service
call comes into that telephone.
When Night Service with Outward Restriction is used, a system operator must
enter a password to manually activate or deactivate Night Service.
Changing the system time while in Night Service mode deactivates Night
Service; Night Service must be reactivated manually.

Direct-Line Consoles
A DLC operator can also activate Night Service by pressing the Feature button
and dialing 39. When a feature code is used to activate or deactivate Night
Service and Outward Restriction is programmed, the DLC operator does not
hear an error tone if an invalid password is entered and, unless a Night Service
button is programmed, cannot determine whether Night Service is active.
