The News function

News may be messages, calls with Caller ID in the form of Voice Announcement or just the phone number, or Internal messages. News are shown in the illuminated display:

A new number and/or Voice Announcements

A new number with a message.

At the same time a flashing digit (max. 9) will tell you how many News you have received.

If the phone number has more than 10 digits, the index number will not be shown. BeoTalk 1200 can handle up to 13 digits.

Even though BeoTalk 1200 has received a call and is actually playing an announcement, at any time you can cut in and continue the conversation by lifting off the handset of your telephone.

The phone numbers and the messages, if any, of the 50 latest calls received are stored in the News list.

All numbers from which you have received a call are transferred to the News list - even when the answering machine function has been deactivated.
