Dialing Back
When reviewing Caller ID records, you may dial back the phone numbers shown on
the display by pressing the DIAL button.
If you programmed your local area code in the setup menu
1. Use the
SKIP or REPEAT button to scroll to the number you want to dial.
If you see a number with 7 digits (i.e. 555-1234), then the call was received from
within your area code. However, this does not guarantee the call is a local call.
• If you see a number with 11 digits (i.e. 1-234-555-1234), then the call received was
not from your area code.
2. Press the
DIAL button and the screen displays PICKUP or ADJ. A 10 second
timer also starts in the upper right side of the display, letting you know the time
remaining until the unit returns to the Summary Screen. If you adjust the number to
be dialed, the timer automatically resets itself.
3. To adjust the phone number, press the
DIAL button. For instance, a 7-digit local
number sometimes cannot be dialed because it requires a 10-digit or 11-digit
format. Press the DIAL button repeatedly to scroll through the 7, 10, and 11-digit
numbers.
-digits: 7-digit telephone number (i.e. 555-5555)
10-digits: 3-digit area code + 7-digit telephone number (i.e. 425-555-5555)
11-digits: long distance code 1 + 3-digit area code + 7-digit telephone number
(i.e. 1-425-555-5555)
4. To dial the displayed number, pick up the handset or press the
SPEAKERPHONE
button before the timer reaches 0. The screen displays NOW DIALING and the
number is dialed.
