CALLER ID
Your VT 1421 cordless phone is
capable of displaying the name and/
or phone number of the person calling,
before you answer the phone.
Subscription to Caller ID service through
your local telephone company is
required to utilize this feature.
If you subscribe to alphanumeric (name
and number) Caller ID service, the
calling party’s name and phone number
(when available) will be displayed on
the handset screen while the phone is
ringing.
If you subscribe to numeric (number
only) Caller ID service, the calling
party’s phone number (when available)
will be displayed on the handset screen
while the phone is ringing.
Call Waiting Caller ID (Type II)
Your VT 1421 cordless phone is also
capable of displaying Caller ID
information in connection with a Call
Waiting signal. If you are on a call, and
receive a Call Waiting alert signal, the
handset will display the name and/or
number (when available) of the party
trying to reach you. As above,
subscription to Call Waiting ID service
through your local phone company is
required in order to utilize this feature.
A Word About Caller ID
Due to regional incompatibilities, Caller
ID information may not be available for
every call you receive. In addition, the
calling party may intentionally block
their name and phone number from
being sent.
The above display indicates that three
new Caller ID records have been
received since you last reviewed your
Caller ID memory.
NOTE:
You must be in an area where Caller
ID service is available and you must
subscribe to it to use this feature.
If you do not subscribe to Caller ID
service, the phone will still operate
normally, except that the Caller ID
information is not received or
displayed.
Receiving And Storing Calls
This unit receives and displays all
Caller ID information: the caller’s
telephone number, the caller’s name
and the exact date and time of the call
(as provided by the local telephone
company).
The phone sequentially numbers these
call records and retains them in memory
for later review. The unit can store up
to 50 numbers in memory.
Once Caller ID memory is full, any new
call forces a deletion of the oldest call
record.
New Call Counter
The VT 1421 keeps track of new Caller
ID records. For example:
