I agree with Felix on the use of a discrete signal, and it is something that I always discuss pre-match.

My preference is that the R2 will give a discrete signal indicating when a back row player is involved in a potential violation situation, attack or block. It is then up to the R1 to decide if the ball was completely above the height of the net (BRA) or any part of the blocker's body was above the net (BRB). At that point, the R1 can either blow the whistle or use the safe signal as appropriate.

A back row violation is also something that you can determine after the play is dead, so you can go back and get it if necessary then.
