Is there anyway to use the NIGHT service Scheduling to send all incoming calls to an external number. This client needs to send their calls to an answering service after hours. They have a MICS 6.1 with a NAM voice mail system version 4.1.
 
Two ways to do it.

Have a phone in the telephone room that is forwarded to the external number. Night Service can then make this phone ring.

or easier

Use your carrier's call forwarding feature.

Yes thanks,I thought about the extra handset in the phone room that would lower the volume if I understand or is there an adjustment on the 4 port CI card to compensate?
 
You are way better off using call forwarding feature from the carrier especially if this is a medical office due to potential legal issues in an after hours emergency.
