Monitor
Description
Monitor allows certain stations the ability to listen into the conversation of other stations. Monitor
capability is a hierarchical feature. Stations are assigned a Monitor Level from 0 to 9. Within that
hierarchy, a station may monitor another station of lower monitor status. Monitor differs from override in
that there is no intrusion tone given to a monitored party.
See also Override, page 129 of this document.
Conditions
The station being monitored must have a monitor level that is less than the station invoking the monitor.
In the case of a monitor of an internal conversation, the monitor level of both parties in the conversation
must be lower than the level of the monitoring station.
A station with a monitor level of 0 cannot monitor any other station.
Programming
Mode 40-[STN]-02, Monitor Level determines the hierarchy within the system. Valid settings for this
option are from 0 to 9. A station with a monitor level of 0 cannot monitor any other stations.
Operation
1. A station user dials a busy extension (or presses a DSS key).
2. The user will hear a busy signal.
3. The station user dials [#].
4. The monitoring station enters the conversation in a listen only state. The monitor will remain in
place until one of the parties hangs up.
Note:
If a station with a lower Monitor level attempts to monitor a station with an equal or higher monitor
level, the station will be returned a busy signal by the system. The monitor will not be allowed.
