Caller ID Service

Using Caller ID service

Important:

L This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use Caller ID features, you must subscribe to a Caller ID service. Contact your service provider/ telephone company for details.

Caller ID features

When an outside call is being received, the caller’s phone number is displayed. Caller information for the last 50 callers is logged in the caller list from the most recent call to the oldest.

L If the unit cannot receive caller information, the following is displayed:

Out of Area: The caller dials from an area which does not provide a Caller ID service.

Private Caller: The caller requests not to send caller information.

L If the unit is connected to a PBX system, caller information may not be properly received. Contact your PBX supplier.

Missed calls

If a call is not answered, the unit treats it as a missed call and yis displayed. This lets you know if you should view the caller list to see who called while you were away.

Even if only one missed call in the caller list is viewed (page 32), ydisappears from the display. When you receive another new call, yis displayed again.

Note:

L Even when there are unviewed missed calls, ydisappears from the standby display if the following operation is performed by one of the registered handsets:

Being replaced on the base unit or charger.

Pressing {ic}.

Phonebook name display

When caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the phonebook, the stored name in the phonebook is displayed and logged in the caller list.

Category settings for phonebook

Category settings can help you identify who is calling by using different ringer tones 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 ringer tone you selected are used.

Changing category ringer tones

If you select Default Ringer, the unit uses the ringer tone you selected on page 23 when calls from this category are received. The default setting is Default Ringer.
