Selecting Channels

When a customer and agent speak at the same time or there is interference on the line one of the parties to the call it is sometimes useful to listen to just one channel or the other

To listen to a specific channel:

  • Click the blue number, representing the percentage of talking time, to listen to only the left hand channel. To listen to both channels click the blue number again.
  • Click the purple number, representing the percentage of talking time, to listen to only cross-talk, this is when both parties are talking at the same time.To listen to both channels click the purple number again.
  • Click the red number, representing the percentage of talking time, to listen to only the right hand channel. To listen to both channels click the red number again.

In the screenshot the left hand channel was talking 52% of the time, for 11% of the time both parties were talking, and the right hand channel was talking for 53% of the time.

These figures indicate how well the agent is communicating. In general the middle figure, the cross talk, should be as low as possible.
