The following illustration shows how a Caller ID call
appears on the phone display.
Figure 3-1. Example Caller ID display.
Note: Due to processing and timing limitations,
some of the last characters in a name may not
appear when the phone first rings. These
characters are written to the display as soon as
they are received at the phone. If the phone is
answered before the complete name is
displayed, the truncated name appears on the
call log.
Flexible Display of Caller Information
Prior to Caller ID, the SMDR Display Start Timer
controlled two functions:
•
When incoming trunk name/number was
replaced by call duration time
•
When the SMDR call record began.
With the introduction of Caller ID, the SMDR Display
Start Timer only controls when the SMDR call record
begins. A new timer, the Call Duration Timer,
controls how long incoming call information is
displayed. This new timer ensures that Caller ID
information is displayed long enough to provide
