Fax Over Networking
The purpose of Aspire Networking is to be able to connect several systems and have them appear to
operate as one system. However, some restrictions still apply. With older software, with Fax Over
Networking using H.323 trunks, if a resource was busy, the operation could not be performed efÞ-
ciently. Although the operation would continue if there were no G.711 compression, there was no
resending procedure with RTP and reliability was a problem. The software now enhances this oper-
ation to provide better performance.
With IP networking, the modem signal of the fax relay now uses H.245. This enhancement only
applies to G3.
For additional information on Networking, refer to the Aspire Networking Guide (P/N 0893207).
Night Service
Description
Night Service lets system users activate one of the Night Service modes. Night Service redirects
calls to their night mode destination, as determined by Assigned and Universal Night Answer pro-
gramming. The system allows Night Service to be enabled for each Night Service group, allowing
each group to determine when their calls should switch modes. A user typically activates Night
Service after normal working hours, when most employees are unavailable to answer calls. The
system also provides external contacts to enable Night Service.
There are four (Aspire S) or eight (Aspire M/L/XL) Night Service modes:
● Day 1 / Day 2 Modes - for normal working hours
● Night 1 / Night 2 Modes - after hours (usually evening)
● Midnight 1 / Midnight 2 Modes - late at night to early in the morning
● Rest 1 / Rest 2 Modes - interval usually used for lunch
Assigned Night Answer (ANA)
With Assigned Night Answer, Night Service has calls ring extensions directly. Assigned Night
Answer provides an answering point for Night Service calls. For certain applications, this may be
more appropriate than Universal Night Answer. For example, you could program trunks to ring the
security station telephone during off hours.
Universal Night Answer (UNA)
Universal Night Answer makes incoming calls ring over the External Paging speakers. With UNA,
an employee can go to a telephone and press the ßashing line key or use “Universal Answer” to
pick up the call. Only ring groups calls can be used with Universal Night Answer. For more on set-
ting up Universal Answer, turn to the “Central OfÞce Calls, Answering” feature.
