Caller ID Service

Using Caller ID service
Important:
L 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.
L For all local and national incoming
calls, your display will show the area
code (e.g. 09 for Auckland) or the
cellular prefix (e.g. 0274 for Telecom
Cellular) followed by the caller’s
telephone number. An Auckland
caller’s number will be displayed as
09XXXXXXX. The seven X’s
represent the seven digits of the
caller’s telephone number. A caller
from a 6-digit Telecom Cellular
number will be displayed as
0274XXXXXX. For incoming
international calls, your display may
only show “0000”. For business users
on a Centrex line, your display will
show Centrex extension numbers in
the shorter extension number format
used within your company.
L The Caller ID information will not be
presented on incoming fax calls if
Telecom FaxAbility is used.
Using toll services from Telecom or
another company
Your telephone company may charge
you for a local call if the number dialled
has the area code prefix included. If this
is unacceptable, dial only the 7-digit
local number. Do not dial the {0} prefix
or the area code.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received,
the caller’s phone number is displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 callers
is logged in the caller list from the most
recent call to the oldest.
L If the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following is displayed:
– “Out of Area”: The caller dialled
from an area which does not
provide a Caller ID service.
– “Private Caller”: The caller
requested not to send caller
information.
L 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 y 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 32), y
disappears from the display. When you
receive another new call, y is displayed
again.
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.
