Night Service with Auxiliary Equipment
You can set up modems, fax machines, and answering machines to receive calls
automatically after hours. When Night Service is on, calls ring immediately at the
appropriate extensions, so that no human intervention is required to transfer calls
to the fax, modem, or answering machine. When Night Service is off, you can use
the auxiliary equipment lines for normal business purposes, so that lines are
dedicated to auxiliary equipment
only after hours.
By putting auxiliary equipment in the Night Service Group as described in this
section, auxiliary equipment can start ringing and answering calls whenever you
turn Night Service on. In other words, the Night Service button at extension 10
acts like a switch, turning auxiliary equipment on and off, as well as putting the
system into Night Service.
NOTE:
If you have a voice messaging system, turning Night Service on also
activates Night Service operation of the voice messaging system.
Figure 4-13 shows a system with a fax machine and a modem connected to
separate extensions. Line A is published as the fax line, and line B is published as
the modem line.
