Caller ID features

When an outside call is being received, the calling party’s name and telephone number are displayed.

Caller information for the last 50 callers is logged in the caller list by the most recent call to the oldest.

LGenerally caller information is displayed from the 2nd ring.

LIf the unit cannot receive caller information, the following is displayed:

Out of area”: The caller dialed from an area which does not provide Caller ID service.

Private caller”: The caller requested not to send caller information.

Long distance”: The caller called you long distance.

LIf the unit is connected to a PBX system, caller information may not be received properly. Consult your PBX supplier.

Missed calls

If a call is not answered, the unit treats the call as a missed call. “Missed call” is displayed on the handset display. This lets you know if you should view the caller list to see who called while you were out. You can view the number of missed calls by pressing {CID} (left soft key).

Note:

LIf you press {CID}, then press {OFF} without viewing all missed calls in the caller list, “Missed call” disappears from the display. When you receive another new call, it is displayed again.

Call Waiting Caller ID display

If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID services, the 2nd caller’s information is displayed after you hear a Call Waiting tone (page 27). Please contact your telephone service provider for details and availability of this service in your area.

Talking Caller ID

This feature lets you know who is calling without looking at the display. When a call comes in, the handset and base unit announce the caller’s name displayed on the handset following every ring.

To use this feature, you must subscribe to Caller ID service of your telephone service provider.

LName pronunciation may vary. This feature may not pronounce all names correctly.

LCaller ID supports names of up to 15 letters. If the caller’s name has more than 15 letters, the name is not displayed or announced correctly.

LUsually the unit announces the caller’s name after the 2nd ring. If you turn on the answering system and set the ring count to “2 rings” (page 57), the unit does not announce the caller’s name. If “Toll saver” is selected and there is a new message, the unit does not announce the caller’s name.
