Automated call block
With automated call block, the unit screens
incoming calls before ringing for allowed calls, or
ends the calls without ringing for calls identified as
robocalls, telemarketing calls, or other undesirable
calls (Caller ID subscribers only).
The unit will play the greeting message for
automated call block and prompt the caller to enter
an access code in order for the unit to identify
whether the call is automated.
You can set the unit to block or unblock mode.
The default setting is
“
Unblock
”
.
Note:
R
The unit connects the call without prompting to
enter the access code in the following situations:
– the caller’s phone number matches an entry
in the phonebook (page 29).
– the caller’s name matches an entry in the
allow name list (page 27).
– the caller’s phone number is memorized in
the allowed number database (page 26).
R
If the number is stored in the call block list
(page 23), the unit disconnects the call without
playing the greeting message for automated call
block.
R
The automated call block feature is not available:
– when battery saving mode is on (page 11).
R
When the answering system answers a call
from a caller who is not registered in the
phonebook, allow name list, or allowed number
database, the following operations are delayed:
– answering a call
– remote turn on
– toll saver
R
When the unit receives a call from a caller who
is not registered in the phonebook, allow name
list, or allow number database in the following
situations, the unit shifts to standby mode:
– when searching the phonebook, caller list,
call block list, or allow name list
– when programming (depending on settings)
– when using the answering system
– when paging all handsets or base unit
R
Blocked calls are logged in the caller list. We
recommend you to check the caller list
periodically. If necessary, register the entry to
the phonebook or allow name list to connect the
call next time.
Allowed number database
Once the caller enters the access code, the
caller’s phone number is memorized in the allowed
number database as an unblocked number.
Callers from this database are allowed to connect
without the access code from their next call.
100 entries can be stored to the database (22
digits max. each).
Note:
R
When the database memory is full, the latest
call received will replace the oldest number
stored in the list.
R
The numbers stored in the database will be
erased when you change the access code
(page 26).
R
The numbers stored in the database cannot be
displayed.
