Basic Operation

Call Log (Caller ID - Call Waiting)

Caller ID - Call Waiting ID

Your i 6783 is capable of displaying the number of the calling party before you answer the phone (caller ID or CID). If the number is contained in the phonebook, the name of the caller will also be displayed. It is also capable of displaying CID information in conjunction with a call waiting alert signal (call waiting caller ID). With call waiting caller ID, the CID data is displayed so you can decide whether to answer the incoming call, or continue with your current conversation. Your i 6783 can hold up to 50 CID entries.

NOTES ABOUT CALLER ID & CALL WAITING CALLER ID

These are subscription services, provided by most regional telephone service pro- viders. You must subscribe to these services to get the benefits of these features. If you do not subscribe to CID services, you can still use your i 6783 and the other features it offers.

Due to regional incompatibilities, CID information may not be available for every call you receive. In addition, the calling party may intentionally block their name and/or phone number from being sent.

When one handset is accessing the call log, the other handsets cannot access it at the same time. If this is attempted, NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME will display on the other handset.

As new CID/call waiting ID records are received, your handset displays will alert you to the new CID records, for example:

After you review all new CID records, the NEW call indication will be turned off and the screen will show:

If the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for the new call. If the call log is empty when you try to enter to call log review, the following message is displayed:
