Using Caller ID service
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to
your telephone company’s Caller ID
service.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received, the
calling party’s phone number will be
displayed.
Phone numbers for the last 50 different
callers will be logged in the caller list,
allowing you to return missed calls. Caller
information is stored by the most recent
call to the oldest.
LWhen Caller ID information is received
and it matches a phone number stored
in the phonebook:
– The stored name will be displayed and
logged in the caller list. (Private name
display)
– The handset will use the ringer tone
and the ringer indicator colour you
assigned to the caller. (Ringer ID and
light-up ID)
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 45).
LIf the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following will be
displayed:
“Out of area”: The caller dialled from
an area which does not provide Caller ID
service.
“Private caller”: The caller
requested not to send caller information.
LIf the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
LIf the name display service is available in
your area, the display will show callers’
names. For further information, please
contact your telephone company.
Call waiting and Caller ID
compatible
If you subscribe to Caller ID service, your
handset displays the 2nd caller’s
information while talking. After you hear a
call waiting tone, the caller’s phone
number will be displayed.
You can answer the 2nd call, keeping the
1st call on hold.
Follow Telstra or your service provider
instructions using {Recall}.
LIf the phone number is stored in the
phonebook with its name, the caller’s
name will also be displayed.
LPlease contact Telstra or your service
provider for details and availability in
your area.
For Caller ID Type II users
When you receive a 2nd call during a
conversation, you will hear a signal tone
following the call waiting tone and the
conversation will be interrupted or
muted for a short period of time. This is
not fault of the product as these events are
normal.
LThe tones are generated by the
telephone company.
Ringer ID and light-up ID
This feature can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringers and ringer
indicator colours for different callers stored
in the phonebook. You can assign a
different ringer and indicator colour to each
phonebook item. When a call is received
from a caller stored in the phonebook, the
ringer and indicator colour are used after
Caller ID information is displayed.
LThe ringer and indicator colour may be
changed after the 2nd ring.
