CALLER ID OPERATION
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from
your phone company, the phone compa-
ny sends information about the call, as
well as the time and date, between the
first and second rings of every call you
receive.
The TAD-797 displays this information
when it receives a call, and it stores up
to 50 Caller ID records for later review. It
also shows if caller information is un-
available or if the name and number
were blocked by the caller (see “Caller
ID Messages” on Page 26).
If you subscribe to Call Waiting with
Caller ID, you will hear a tone through
the handset when a call comes in, then
the Caller ID record appears. If you want
to answer the incoming call, press
FLASH . To resume the previous phone
conversation, press FLASH again.
If the phone’s Caller ID memory be-
comes full, any new call replaces the
oldest call’s record.
REVIEWING CALLER ID
RECORDS
To review the Caller ID records, lift the
handset and press
CALL ID . The number
of new Caller ID records, if any, and the
total number of records appears.
Hint: If the handset is faceup on the base,
it always shows the number of Caller ID
records, so you can easily see if you have
new records to review.
Repeatedly press t to scroll through the
Caller ID records from the newest to the
oldest. Press s to scroll back through the
records. To scroll quickly, hold down t or
s.
When you scroll past the oldest record,
End appears. When you scroll past the
newest record, the record totals appear.
