ATCOM TECHNOLOGY CO., LIMITED
This allows a message like "Thank you for holding, your call is important to us." to be played at regular intervals
while a caller is in the queue
NOTE
: The key point with announcements is that they are only played within the timeout/retry period set on the
queue. For the most part this works OK as when all queue members are busy/unavailable, the timeout/retry
period is effectively ignored (i.e. you can consider the queue to always be in this state) and announcements will
be played as per your setting of the announce-frequency and periodic-announce-frequency parameters. When a
handset is available and the queue is ringing it, the timeout/retry timeouts become critical. For example, if you
want announcements every 20 seconds, but the timeout is set to 60 seconds, when a queue member is ringing,
you will only ever get announcements every 60 seconds.

This allows callers waiting in the queue to dial a key to go to other destination.
