Which tables (still in play) can a playing TD see?

I am still coming to terms with the intricacies of TDing a tournament on Version 3.

Imagine that a reserve TD (available on the TD list in case the main, non-playing TD is disconnected) decides to play in the tournament.
Can he see the results of the hands, or the play of those hands, at other tables in the round which he is currently playing, thus giving himself UI?
Either:
  • 1) when those other tables have finished playing and/or
  • 2) whilst play is still in progress?

Is the answer any different for unclocked tournaments as against clocked tournaments?

Playing directors cannot move to another table and can, like all normal players, only see results at other tables once they have finished the hand (and even then only if the barometer option is selected). Therefore there is no possibility of UI unless a director call specifically refers to a bid or card (very rare!!).
