Black Box FX160A Telephone User Manual


 
PHONE LINE MANAGER 16 X 4
40
In some office situations, it may not be desirable to allow all key phones to display and keep a record of
the Caller ID information describing the name and number of incoming callers. A new parameter has been
added to instruct the AVT-16L key phone as to whether it will display the Caller ID information as it is sent
from the Central Office and keep a Caller ID history in memory. See Section 4.2.
AVT-16 key phones which are not given this privilege will still be able to display the Caller ID information
for any call which is transferred to the key phone while the call is in progress. After the key phone is no
longer connected to the outside line, the Caller ID information is lost from that phone. Be aware that this
parameter setting is sent to the key phone only when the key phone is first plugged in to the Phone Line
Manager 16 x 4 system. Thus, the key phone should be unplugged from the system and then reconnected
for a “Display Caller ID” programming change to take effect.
