Connecting Caller ID Display Devices
The system provides multi-line Caller ID on system
display phones without having to install additional
devices. (See “Caller ID” in Chapter 5 of the PARTNER
II
Communications System Programming and Use guide
for more information.) However, if you want to display or
process Caller ID information for other applications—for
example, on a PC that displays call records—you must
connect the devices as described here. First, you must
subscribe to Caller ID service from your local phone
company, and then connect the Caller ID display device
directly to the line that supports Caller ID at the network
interface jack. Additionally, you must provide a separate
wiring run for the device to the appropriate location. To
process Caller ID information for multiple lines, you must
provide a separate device and a separate wiring run for
each line. To have additional wiring runs installed, call a
qualified service technician.
