Using Caller ID service
Important:
L
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To
use Caller ID features, you must
subscribe to a Caller ID service.
Contact your service provider/
telephone company for details.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received,
the caller’s name and phone number are
displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 callers
is logged in the caller list from the most
recent call to the oldest.
L
If 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.
–
“
Long distance
”
: The caller
makes a long distance call.
L
If the unit is connected to a PBX
system, caller information may not be
properly received. Contact your PBX
supplier.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats it
as a missed call. The display shows
“
Missed call
”
. This lets you know if
you should view the caller list to see who
called while you were away.
Phonebook name display
When caller information is received and
it matches a phone number stored in the
phonebook, the stored name in the
phonebook is displayed and logged in
the caller list.
Talking Caller ID
This feature lets you know who is calling
without looking at the display.
To use this feature, you must:
– subscribe to a Caller ID service of
your service provider/telephone
company.
– turn this feature on (page 23).
When caller information is received, the
handsets and base unit announce the
caller’s name or phone number received
from your service provider/telephone
company following every ring.
The unit announces in English only.
L
Name pronunciation may vary. This
feature may not pronounce all names
correctly.
L
Caller ID service has a limit of how
many characters can be displayed. If
the caller’s name is too long, the
handset may not be able to display or
announce the entire name.
L
The announcement is heard at the
same level as the ringer volume (page
15, 23).
L
If you turn on the answering system
and set the number of rings
“
2
”
(page
35), the unit does not announce the
caller information. If
“
Toll saver
”
is
selected and there is a new message,
the unit does not announce the caller
information.
L
When you receive a call while on the
phone, the 2nd caller’s name is not
announced even if you subscribe to
both Caller ID and Call Waiting with
Caller ID services.
Phonebook name announcement
When caller information is received and
it matches a phone number stored in the
phonebook, the stored name in the
phonebook is announced.
