Caller ID Service

Using Caller ID service

Important:

LThis unit is Caller ID compatible. To use

Caller ID features (such as displaying caller phone numbers), you must subscribe to Caller ID service. Consult your service provider for details.

Caller ID features

When an outside call is received, the caller’s phone number can be displayed.

LPhone numbers of the last 50 different callers will be logged in the caller list.

LWhen caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the unit’s phonebook:

–The stored name will be displayed and logged in the caller list.

–The handset will use the display colour and ringtone assigned to the caller’s category.

LIf the unit is connected to a PBX system, you may not receive the caller information.

LWhen the caller dialled from an area which does not provide Caller ID service, “Out of Area” will be displayed.

LWhen the caller requested not to send caller information, either no information or “Private Caller” will be displayed.

Missed calls

If a call is not answered, the unit treats the call as a missed call. yis shown on the display. When the screen saver mode (page

13)is cancelled, the number of missed calls is displayed next to y. This lets you know if you should view the caller list to see who called while you were out.

Call waiting and Caller ID compatible

If you subscribe to Caller ID service, your handset displays the second caller’s

information while talking. After you hear a call-waiting tone, the caller’s phone number will be displayed.

You can answer the second call, keeping the first call on hold. Follow Telstra or your service provider instructions using {R}.

LIf the phone number is stored in the phonebook with its name, the caller’s name will also be displayed.

LPlease contact Telstra or your service provider for details and availability in your area.

Using Caller ID type II

When you receive a second call during a conversation, you will hear a signal tone following the call waiting tone and the conversation will be interrupted or muted for a short period of time. This is not the fault of the product as these events are normal.

Note:

LThe tones are generated by the service provider.

Category features for Caller ID subscribers

Categories can help you identify who is calling by using different ringtones and display colours for different categories of callers. When adding an entry to the phonebook you can assign it to the desired category (page 18). When a call is received from a caller assigned to a category, the category’s display colour and ringtone you select is used.

Changing category ringtones

You can select a ringtone for each category. If you select “Ext. Ringtone”, the unit will use the external ringtone you set on page 22 when calls from this category are received. The default setting is “Ext. Ringtone”.
