Night Service with Auxiliary Equipment
4-21
Figure 4-11 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.
Using Night Service with Auxiliary Equipment
During the day, lines A and B do not ring at extensions X and Y. When you turn
Night Service on, calls on line A ring immediately at the fax (extension X). Since
that line is not assigned to any other extension in the Night Service Group, only
extension X receives fax transmissions. Likewise, with Night Service on, calls on
line B ring immediately at the modem (extension Y).
NOTE:
If answering machines are connected to Night Service extensions, you can
join a call that was already answered by an answering machine from any
system phone. If you have a Lucent Technologies answering machine with
the Call Intercept feature, the answering machine drops off the call when
you join it.
Programming Night Service with Auxiliary
Equipment
Use the following procedure to program Night Service with auxiliary equipment.
1. If extension X and Y are key extensions, use Line Assignment (#301) to
assign only line A to extension X (for the fax machine to cover) and only line
B to extension Y (for the modem to cover).
If extensions X and Y are pooled extensions, use Pool Line Assignment
(#207) to remove lines A and B from all pools and Pool Extension
Assignment (#314) to remove all pools from extensions X and Y. Also use
Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to extension X (for the fax
machine to cover) and only line B to extension Y (for the modem to cover).
