System Administrator Procedures
With a system administrator endpoint, you can perform the following procedures:
• Place the local node in night or day mode
• Place other network nodes in night or day mode
• Set the date and time of the local node
• Set the network date and time
• Synchronize clocks in the network
• Make database changes (see page 30 for a list of programming areas)
• Enable, disable, and reset local and off-node call processing application modems
• Program System Speed Dial numbers on the local node
• Receive and clear displayed system and network alarms
• Use diagnostic mode features:
– Freeze and unfreeze the database history for the local node or any node in the net-
work using programmed freeze zones
– Print error logs
– Seize specific devices for troubleshooting purposes
Placing the Local System in Day or Night Mode
You can use a system administrator endpoint to place the local node in day or night mode. The
day or night mode selects preprogrammed database lists to determine trunk access, toll restric-
tion, emergency outgoing access, etc. for the endpoints in the system. Active calls are not
affected when the Day–Night mode is changed.
To view Day–Night Mode status:
While on-hook, enter the Night Ring On/Off feature code (9860). You hear a single
confirmation tone. The display shows
NIGHT MODE IS ON (or OFF). If night mode
was turned on, the display shows
THE SYSTEM IS IN NIGHT MODE until day mode is
turned on.
Placing Network Nodes in Day or Night Mode
You can use a system administrator endpoint to place one or more nodes in day or night mode.
The day/night mode determines which lists the system will use for trunk access, toll restriction,
etc.
The network determines the day/night mode status of a call based on the day/night mode status
of the node where the trunk resides.
To turn night mode on:
1. While on-hook, enter the Enable Network Night feature code (9861).
2. When prompted to enter a node number, enter the number wanted in the range 01–99.
To select all nodes, enter 00.
You hear a single confirmation tone. The display shows
NIGHT MODE IS ON. Then the
display shows
NODE X IS IN NIGHT MODE until day mode is turned on.
To turn day mode on:
1. While on-hook, enter the Enable Network Day feature code (9862).
2. When prompted to enter a node number, enter the node number you want.
You hear a single confirmation tone. The display shows
DAY MODE IS ON.
