Abstract
A method and apparatus provide telecommunication terminal status information as enhanced telecommunication terminal status information by establishing communication with a telecommunication switching system controlling a telecommunication terminal by a monitor computer; directly accessing the telecommunication terminal status information from the telecommunication switching system by the monitor computer via a path distinct from that used to transmit the telecommunication terminal status information to the telecommunication terminal; converting the telecommunication terminal status information to enhanced terminal status telecommunication terminal status information by the monitor computer; and presenting the enhanced telecommunication terminal status information to a user of the telecommunication set. The telecommunication set may be a multi-paged telecommunication set. Further, the method and apparatus allow an individual to observe telecommunication terminals of an observed group by receiving enhanced telecommunication terminal status concerning the status of these telecommunication terminals.
