Caller ID Service
26 For assistance, please call 1-800-211-PANA (7262).
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 name or telephone number
will be displayed.
Caller information 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.
L When 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. (Personalized
name display)
– The handset will use the ringer tone
and the ringer indicator color you
assigned to the caller. (Ringer ID and
light-up ID)
L
While 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 47).
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 called
you long distance.
L
If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
Call Waiting Caller ID display
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call
Waiting with Caller ID services, the 2nd
caller’s information will be displayed after
you hear a Call Waiting tone (page 21).
Note:
L
Please contact your telephone company
for details and availability of this service
in your area.
Ringer ID and light-up ID
This feature can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringers and ringer
indicator colors for different callers stored
in the phonebook. You can assign a
different ringer and indicator color to each
phonebook item. When a call is received
from a caller stored in the phonebook, the
ringer and indicator color are used after
Caller ID information is displayed.
L
Usually the ringer and indicator color will
be changed from the 2nd ring.
Ringer ID
You can assign a different ringer tone to
each caller in the phonebook. If you select
“No Ringer ID”, the unit will use the
ringer tone you set on page 35 when a call
is received from that caller. The default
setting is “No Ringer ID”.
