Mitel SX-50 - Night Service and Unattended Operation

NlGMT SERVICE/UNATTENDED OPERATION
When an Attendant is not on duty . . .
the system is put into Night Service. Outside calls that normally ring at
the console then ring at an alternate answering point. The alternate
destination could be an extension, a hunt group, the ring group or a
night bell. When the system is programmed, each outside line and
extension can be given its own destination, and groups of outside lines
and destinations can share the same destination.
A call to a night bell can be answered by anyone who hears it ringing.
The person dials the night pickup access code (called a TAFAS code:
“Trunk Answer From Any Station”) to be connected to the call.
Depending on the way your system is programmed, any DIAL 0 calls
(to the attendant) may be similarly diverted.
During Night Service, the console can still be used to make outgoing
calls, and for other operator functions.
