Hello All, I am new administrator so any and all help will be greatly appreciated. We currently have our phone system on a schedule for night service. There have been a couple of occasions where I needed to put the phones in night mode remotely at a time other than the schedule time. At one time, I thought that our system here was set up so that we could dial in and enter a code and set the phones to night mode. However, I was not the administrator at that time , so I am just trying to dig it up. So, I was wondering a couple of things? Number one, can it be done like that? Secondly, if so, where do I find the configuration for that feature. This is a 3300. Thank you in advance for you assistance.

Yes, you absolutely can put the system into and out of Night mode via a Feature Access Code.
You'l need to log into your system and look up the Dialed Day/Night Service - Activate
You can find this in System Properties -> System Feature Settings -> Feature Access Codes

Thank you. Can that be done by dialing any number into the PBX. In other words, if I have 5 outside numbers which all go into the PBX, I can dial either of those and then enter the feature code to activate/deactivate the night service?
Also, are there two separate codes for activate/deactivate or is the one code just a toggle? Where do I find the full configuration for the night service in the controller? I just want to educate myself on it.

The code/s have to be dialed directly from a Mitel phone, unless you have DISA line setup. But for most places, on a Mitel phone is the only way.
Also, are there two separate codes for activate/deactivate or is the one code just a toggle?
There is only a singular code, but after it, you have to designate what mode you want the system to be in. 0 = Day, 1 = Nights1, 2 = Nights2
So for my system it's *305 for the FAC, so Day mode is *3050. Nights1 mode is *3051, and Nights2 is *3052
Where do I find the full configuration for the night service in the controller? I just want to educate myself on it.
This is a more complicated question...it depends on what kind of trunks you're using, how things ring in, and things like that.

There will also be a FAC to quickly check which mode you re in (which I would guess fpr bluewhite's system will be *306)
-
do you have remote access to the ESM, if so you could use the maintenance command "cp service" to view or change night service

Be aware this only affects tenant #1, other tenants must be done manually via a phone.

Yes I was able to do the PAC and see which mode. I had found that part of it. I just thought that there was a way to dial into the PBX from outside the offices and send the command to the PBX. If that is not the case, that is fine. I was looking to verify that.
I am not sure what ESM stands for and therefore not sure what that is. I apologize for the ignorance. This just kind of fell into my lap and I am learning as I go until I can get some formal training in here. I am also not sure what a DISA line is. Again, sorry for the ignorance.
I will have to look and see what tenants are outlined on my system. Not exactly sure what that is either but, I think I have an idea of how that works.
Thank you to everyone that has answered. It is really appreciated!!

thanks for that clarification acejavelin, good to know, ESM stands for Embedded System Management used to login from web gui, see attached
