The Grand Tour

Companies that receive a large volume of incoming calls can handle them quickly and easily with the

Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) features available on Toshiba’s Strata CT system. Designated

incoming calls bypass the operator and go directly to an answering pool of ACD Agents. From there,

calls are evenly distributed to individual Agents.

ACD Group Supervisor

As an ACD Group Supervisor, Toshiba recommends that you use a 20-button Toshiba proprietary

digital telephone with a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) (see

Figure 1

). The LCD provides important

information about the ACD Group or an individual Agent’s activities.
The buttons on your Supervisor Telephone can be programmed to perform different tasks for you. For

example,

Agent Status

and/or

Queue Status

can be programmed for one-touch access using

Speed Dial (

SD

) buttons. When you use these buttons, the Agent and/or Queue Status is displayed on

the LCD.
Other features are assigned to the flexible buttons on your telephone; for example,

Reset Queue

Alarm

which signals you when too many calls are waiting in queue and

Monitor ACD Call

which

monitors Agents conversations on ACD calls.
A list of flexible ACD feature buttons is on

Page 4

. The button names are recommended by Toshiba.

If your ACD feature button names are different, see your telephone System Administrator for their

definitions.
