Caller ID Service

This unit is compatible with Caller ID services offered by your telephone company. If you subscribe to Caller ID, the caller’s name and phone number will be displayed and recorded in the Caller List.

How caller information is displayed and a caller’s name is announced when a call is received

When a call comes in, the unit will ring and caller ID information will be received. Once caller ID information is received, the handset display shows the caller’s information, then the handset and base unit will announce the displayed name (ex. “Call from ROBINSON, TINA”) following every ring (Talking Caller ID feature).

Example

ROBINSON,TINA

1-555-222-3333

After you answer the call, the display will show the length of the call.

If the unit does not receive caller ID information, one of the following will be displayed:

If your unit is connected to a PBX which does not support Caller ID, you cannot access Caller ID service.
