Using Caller ID service
Important:
R This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to a
Caller ID service. Contact your service
provider/telephone company for details.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received, the
caller information is displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 callers is
logged in the caller list from the most recent
call to the oldest.
R If the unit cannot receive caller information,
the following is displayed:
– “Out of Area”: The caller dials from
an area which does not provide a Caller
ID service.
– “Private Caller”: The caller
requests not to send caller information.
R If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be properly
received. Contact your PBX supplier.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats it as a
missed call and
is displayed. This lets you
know if you should view the caller list to see
who called while you were away.
Even if only one missed call in the caller list is
viewed (page 43),
disappears from the
display. When you receive another new call,
is displayed again.
Note:
R Even when there are unviewed missed
calls,
disappears from the standby
display if the following operation is
performed by one of the registered
handsets:
– Being replaced on the base unit or
charger.
– Pressing M
N.
Phonebook name display
When caller information is received and it
matches a phone number stored in the
phonebook, the stored name in the
phonebook is displayed and logged in the
caller list.
Note:
R If the same phone number is stored in the
shared phonebook and personal
phonebook separately with different names,
the name stored in the personal phonebook
is displayed.
Category ringer tone
This feature can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringer tones for
different categories of callers. When adding an
entry to the shared phonebook, you can
assign it to the desired category (page 22).
When a call is received from a caller assigned
to a category, the ringer you selected for that
category rings after caller information is
displayed.
If you select “Default Ringer”, the unit
uses the ringer tone you selected on page 30
when calls from this category are received.
The default setting is “Default Ringer”.
