Using Caller ID and Call Waiting
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from your telephone company, your phone will show you the caller’s phone number and name (if available) whenever a call comes in. If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting, the phone will show you the name and number of any call that comes in while you are on the line.
Caller ID information is stored for up to 50 incoming calls - even unanswered calls. With Caller ID on Call Waiting (CIDCW), you will hear a Call Waiting tone while you are on a call, to accept the waiting call, press [flash] on the base or cordless handset (see page 32). Additionally, you can dial a number stored in the Caller ID list or save the information to one of your speed dial locations.
Today US telephone carriers only support the transmission of 15 characters for the Caller ID name; therefore, if someone calls you with a name longer than 15 characters, it will be common for it to be truncated to 15 characters only. Also, you may not receive your caller ID information if you answer the call before the second ring. When you receive a call from a PBX (Private Branch eXchange), the caller’s phone number and name may not appear or you may see a common phone number for that PBX system. This is normal operation when receiving caller ID information from a PBX.
