Using Caller ID service

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.

RIf 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.

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

Missed calls

You can answer the 2nd call, keeping the 1st call on hold. Follow your service provider/ telephone company instructions using MR/ECON. (Recall/flash function)

RPlease contact your service provider/ telephone company for details and availability in your area.

For Caller ID Type II users

When you receive a 2nd 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 a fault of the product as these events are normal.

RThe tones are generated by your service provider/telephone company.

Category ringer tone

This feature can help you identify who is calling by using different ringer tones for different categories of callers. When adding an entry to the phonebook, you can assign it to the desired category (page 21). When a call is received from a caller assigned to a category, the ringer you selected for that category rings after caller information is displayed.

If you select Default Ringer, the unit uses the ringer tone you selected on page 26
