Caller ID Operation

Caller ID Operation

If you subscribe to Caller ID service from
your phone company, the phone automati-
cally displays the information the phone com-
pany sends between the first and second
rings of every call you receive. It stores up to
62 numbers only or name and number call
records in its Caller ID memory.

It also shows the date and time the call was
received. The display also shows if caller in-
formation is not available or if the sender
chose not to send the information (see “Call-
er ID Messages” on Page 22).

The NEW CALL indicator flashes during an
incoming call,

RING

and the Caller ID record

appear on the display. Then the total Caller
ID record appears after the last ring stops for
about 8 seconds.

If you subscribe to your phone company's
message waiting service, your TAD informs
you when you have a message waiting. If

MESSAGE

WAITING

and

appear, you

have a voice message in your mailbox.

MESSAGE

WAITING

disappears from the

display after 8 seconds, but

flashes until

you retrieve the message.

Note: The message waiting feature does not
work with stutter dial tone service.

If your phone company sends information in-
dicating that the incoming call is long dis-
tance,

LDC

appears.

If you receive more than one call (without an
accompanying message) from the same
phone number,

RPT

(repeat) appears, and

the TAD stores a single Caller ID record for
that number with the date and time of the last
call. If the later repeat call has a message
but the previous call does not, the TAD
stores the later call as a repeat call record,
and

RPT

appears.

If the previous call has a message but the
later repeat call does not,

RPT

appears, and

the TAD stores both Caller ID records. If both
of the later and previous calls have messag-
es,

RPT

appears, and the TAD stores both

calls’ information.

If only Caller ID records (or both of incoming
messages and Caller ID records) are full, the
TAD announces “Memory is full”, and

xx

FULL

appears. The TAD

answers calls after 3 rings and plays the sec-
ond outgoing message (OGM 2). If no OGM
2 is recorded, the TAD says “Memory is full.
Thank you for your call.”
