Off Hook Signaling - NEC 910i Installation And User Manual

i-Series System
There are two types of Night Service ringing for outside calls: Assigned Night Answer (ANA) and Universal Night Answer
(UNA). With ANA, specific telephones are programmed to ring at night (like the security desk in the example above). UNA caus-
es incoming calls to ring over the External Paging speakers. If your extension has a line key for the call, just press the line key to
pick up the UNA call. In addition, you may be able to dial the Universal Answer Code to pick up calls for which you don't have
line keys.
Your system may switch Night Service modes automatically. Check with your Communications Manager if this happens, and
when the switch-over occurs.
To activate Night Service by dialing codes:
1. TALK + 818 + Night Service Password.
The Night Service Password is normally 0000. Check with your Communications Manager.
2. Dial the Night Service Mode:
0 = Day Mode, 1 = Night Mode, 2 = Midnight Mode, 3 = Rest Mode, 4 = Day 2 Mode, 5 = Night 2 Mode, 6 =
Midnight 2 Mode, 7 = Rest 2 Mode
You hear confirmation beeps.
3. TALK to hang up.
To activate Night Service using programmable keys:
1. FUNCTION KEY (Night Service).
You hear a beep and the key lights to indicate the mode selected:
Day Mode Key
Night Mode Key
Midnight Mode Key
Rest Mode Key
Day 2 Mode Key
Night 2 Mode Key
Midnight 2 Mode Key
Rest 2 Mode Key
To use Universal Answer to pick up a UNA call:

You are connected to the call.

Off Hook Signaling

Trying to get in touch with a co-worker who is busy on a handset call? Use Off Hook Signaling to let your co-worker know
you're trying to get through. The off hook signal you send to your co-worker is either ringing or a voice announcement over their
idle (second) line appearance.
Your phone system provides three Off Hook Signaling options (see the chart below). Ask your Communications Manager which
options you have.
Automatic Signaling
Manual Signaling

After reaching a busy extension, manual signaling
gives you the choice of using Off Hook Signaling
or activating another feature. If you don't have
Automatic Signaling, you have Manual Signaling.
