Call remains in queue: the Strata DK 
continuously monitors for an idle agent, 
queue overflow timer – time out, or 
overflow point per Program 14-5 (See 
ACD Flowchart 6-2).
CO lines will atttempt to exit the ACD group’s queue and will route to the group’s “Queue Time-out Overflow Destination” 
set in Program 14-4. 
In some cases, if that destination is busy, the call remains in queue as shown below:
Only one destnation can be assigned in Program 14-4 per ACD group.
Queue Timeout Overflow 
Destination is a system

number. Program 14-4 (see

Call connects to the DK 
Auto Attendant calls 
routed per AA assignment 
programs.
The call remains in 
original queue until an 
agent ACD C all

destination assigned in 
Programs 14-4 or 14-5 
becomes idle.
Ring idle agent ACD Call 
button: if agent answers, talk 
on ACD call. if no answer, 
ring another idle agent ACD 
Call button or go to RNA 
destination (ACD Flowcharts 
6-8~6-11).
The call will remain in queue 
until an agent or an overflow

Queue Timeout Overflow 
Destination is normal CO line 
ringing assignment. Program

Queue Timeout Overflow 
Destination is Strata DK 
built-in Auto Attendant. 
Program 14-4 (320, 440)
Queue Timeout Overflow 
Destination is another ACD 
group. Program 14-4: 
RCTUBA/BB, RCTUC/D 
(301~316), RCTUE/F (401~416)
Call enters ACD queue: calls waiting in an ACD group’s queue can be sent to 
an overflow destination if they have been in queue longer than the time 
duration set in Program 11-1 (Queue Over ow Timer).
Is the 
destination in 
Program 14-5 an idle 
DH, ACD group, or
system [DN]
port?
