Third Party Listen-Disconnect
Starting with R5, Third Party Listen-Disconnect is one of two capabilities available
with the Selective Listening feature. Third Party Listen-Reconnect is the
companion to the Listen-Disconnect capability. For the adjunct to use the
Selective Listening feature, it must first be optioned on the System Parameters
Customer Options form.
The adjunct uses third party listen-disconnect to temporarily disconnect a specific
party (that is, the listener) from listening to communication by other parties (that is,
talkers) on an active call. A listener can be listen-disconnected from either a
particular talker or all talkers on the call. A listener that has been
listen-disconnected can continue speaking and be heard by other parties on the
call, but will not be able to hear any parties on the call from whom he or she has
been listen-disconnected.
See ‘‘Third Party Listen-Reconnect’’ on page 4-54 in this chapter for details on the
listen-reconnect capability of Selective Listening.
Information Flow
The adjunct expects a response to its request.
The ECS either:
— Disconnects the listener once it has validated the parameters, or
— Denies the request if it could not complete the listen-disconnection or if the
specified listener does not exist (invalid parameter).
Third Party Listen-Disconnect Parameters
listener
party_id
[mandatory] Identifies the party on the call whose listening
path is to be disconnected — that is, the listener.
talker
party_id
[optional] Identifies the party on the call who will no longer
be heard by the listener— that is, the talker. If the talker
party_id is not specified, the ECS defaults to all parties
currently on the call — that is, all the talkers.
