ASAI and Call Control

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).
