CID-944 Caller ID with Call Waiting ID
Your RadioShack Caller ID (CID) with Call Waiting ID displays the
caller's telephone number (and name, if available in your area) and
the current date and time, as provided by your local phone company
to Caller ID service subscriber. (The date and time are set with your
first incoming Caller ID call.)
Your Caller ID stores and displays up to 64 single (number only) or
multiple (name and number) Caller ID records. It uses the latest inte-
grated circuit recording technology, so your stored Caller ID records
are protected if AC power fails.
The CID's other features include:
Callback — lets you call back a number stored in the CID.
Multiple Extension Capacity — lets you connect more than one
CID to the same phone line.
New Call Indicator — lets you know when new calls have been re-
corded.
Out of Area Indicator — lets you know when a caller is not within
the Caller ID service area.
Message Waiting Indicator — lets you know when you have a
voice mail message (if you subscribe to the local phone company’s
message waiting service).
Call Waiting Caller ID — displays information about an incoming
call while you are on the phone.
Call Waiting Indicator — lets you see the Caller ID information for
Call Waiting calls.
Tri-Lingual (English/French/Spanish) — lets you choose the lan-
guage your CID uses to display Caller ID information.
Call Summary — displays the number of calls you received.
Time and Date Display — displays the current time and date as
provided to Caller ID service subscribers by your local telephone
company.
VIP Call List — lets you save up to 55 Caller ID records in a VIP list,
and sounds a tone when any of those callers call.
Delete — lets you erase Caller ID records one at a time or all at
once.
Contrast Control — lets you adjust the display contrast for the best
readability.
Two View Angle Options — lets you select the desired view angle
using the stand.
Your CID is ETL listed to UL standards and meets all applicable
FCC standards.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
To use this CID, you must be in an area where Caller ID service is
available, and you must subscribe to the service.
Where Caller ID is offered, one or more of the following options are
generally available:
• caller's number only
• caller's name only
• caller's name and number
Your CID displays the caller's name only if that option is available in
your area.
The actual number of Caller ID records your CID will store depends
on the amount of Caller ID information sent by the phone company.
FCC INFORMATION
We have designed your CID to conform to federal regulations, and
you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each CID (and
each device, such as a telephone or answering machine) that you
connect to the telephone line draws power from the line. We refer to
this power draw as the device's ringer equivalence number or REN.
The REN is on the bottom of the Caller ID.
If you use more than one telephone or other device on the line, add
up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five (three in rural areas),
your telephone might not ring. If ringer operation is impaired, remove
a device from the line.
Your CID complies with Part 68 of
FCC Rules. You must, upon re-
quest, provide the FCC registration number and the REN to your
telephone company. Both numbers are on the bottom of the CID.
