SLT User Guide
Silent Monitor
This feature enables an authorized (COS and AUTHORIZATION) user to monitor and/or record (may require additional
hardware) any system port, station, trunk, etc. (except data and conference) in any state, without audio warning to the
monitored party. The monitoring party can hear both sides of the conversation but cannot be heard by them and cannot
break into the conversation. While monitoring a port, your telephone returns a busy signal to all incoming calls.
Monitoring can be conducted as a 2-way Silent Monitor or 1-way (Split) Silent Monitor:
2-Way (Both) Silent Monitor (Xfer 9, #1981):
Allows the Silent Monitor user to listen in on both sides of a conversation. The 2-Way Silent Monitor can be activated from
an idle station before calling, or while attempting to call a busy or no answer destination.

Note:
The 2-way Silent Monitor requires either one of the following cards to be installed on the system:
MRC, U-RMI Office, U-MR Office, CNSsl, 8DRCM, 8DRCF or CNF.
When a CNF card is installed it must be defined as C3-WAY.
1-Way (Split) Silent Monitor (#1448):
Allows the Silent Monitor user to listen in only on one side of a 2-way conversation. The 1-Way (Split) Silent Monitor can
be activated only from idle.
The 1-Way Silent Monitor provides two options:
•
to listen in on a transmission of a selected port (first conversing party)
•
to listen in on any port (second conversing party) contacting the selected port or being contacted by that selected port
