Caller Identification (CLIP)
Caller ID or Calling Line Identification Presentation (CLIP) is provided by your
telephone company and allows you to view numbers and/or names of callers on
your LCD panel.
If no CLIP information is available for a number, it may be for one of these reasons:
- the caller requests that their ID not be sent;
- the calls is from an area where CLIP service is not available (e.g., international calls);
- the call is from the telephone company;
- CLIP information is corrupted;
- the telephone company does not support CLIP information.
Viewing Number or Name of Caller
With CLIP, a caller’s number can be displayed at your phone. If a name is
associated with the number in the system, the name can also be displayed. You
decide whether the caller’s name or number is displayed first when a call is
received. There are three options:
NAME FIRST.
NUMBER FIRST.
NO DISPLAY (do not display CLIP information).
Whichever option you select (name or number), you will still be able to view the
other information at the touch of a button. For example, if you select NAME
FIRST, the caller’s name will display on your LCD panel. To view the number,
simply press the soft button for the NND option.
