3.9.1 How Caller ID is displayed
The calling party’s name or telephone number,
and the called line will be displayed after the 1st
ring. You then have the option of whether or not
to answer the call.
The unit will automatically store caller
information (name, telephone number, date and
time of the call, the number of times called) from
the 30 (base unit)/50 (handset) most recent
callers for both lines combined. Caller
information is stored by the most recent to the
oldest call. When the 31st (base unit)/51st
(handset) call is received, the oldest call is
deleted.
Caller information can be viewed on the display
one item at a time (page 45) or confirmed by
printing the Caller ID list (page 113).
L When caller information is received and it
matches a telephone number stored in the
unit’s phone book, the stored name will be
displayed.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX (Private
Branch Exchange) system, caller information
may not be received properly. Consult your
PBX supplier.
L If 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 made a long
distance call.
L The name display service may not be
available in some areas. For further
information, please contact your telephone
company.
L If the handset has lost communication with
the base unit when a call is received, caller
information will not be recorded in the
handset.
L If both lines receive calls at the same time,
each caller’s information will be displayed
alternately.
To confirm caller information using the
Caller ID list (Base unit only)
– To print manually, see page 113.
– To print automatically after every 30 new
calls, activate feature #26 (page 81).

Waiting services, when a second call is received
on the same line during a conversation, you will

second call.
