The following tables include the indications that observers receive when observers activate and use Service Observing. In the tables:
Wait state means that the observer has activated Service Observing but there are no calls or a call cannot be observed. A call appearance is not reserved. The observer must have an idle call appearance available to be used by Service Observing when an observable call comes in.
Ineligible tone is heard when an observed call becomes ineligible for observation. This tone is the hold confirmation tone
- a rapid series of 5 short 440-Hz beeps. The observer does not hear this tone if the agent receiving the ineligible call hears zip tone.
