How Caller ID information is displayed
and announced
When a call comes in, the unit will ring and
Caller ID information will be received. The
handset display will show the caller’s
information, then the handset and base
unit will announce the displayed name (for
example “Call from ROBINSON, TINA”)
following every ring (Talking Caller ID
feature).
LAfter you answer the call, the display will
show the length of the call.
LThe handset and base unit announce
the caller’s name repeatedly until the
call is answered.
LIf the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following will be
displayed:
“Out of area”: The caller dialed from
an area which does not provide Caller ID
service.
“Private caller”: The caller
requested not to send caller information.
“Long distance”: The caller called
you long distance.
LWhile listening to a message recorded
by the answering system, using the
handset, you can call back the caller
without having to dial the phone number
(page 51).
LIf the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
LDepending on the radio communications
with the base unit, the handset may not
display Caller ID information
immediately after the first ring.
LName display service may not be
available in some areas. For further
information, please contact your
telephone company.
LIf you subscribe to both Caller ID and
Call Waiting with Caller ID services
(CWID), when a second call is received
while talking, a call waiting tone will be
heard and the second caller’s
information will be displayed on the
handset in use (page 21).
Contact your telephone company for
details about availability in your area,
