Basic Operation
Caller ID - Call Waiting ID
Your VT
2650
is capable of displaying the name and/or number of the party calling
before you answer the phone (Caller ID). If the number of the Caller ID is contained by
the phonebook, the name contained in the received CID will be replaced by the name in
the phonebook. It is also capable of displaying Caller ID information in conjunction with
a Call Waiting alert signal (Call Waiting Caller ID). With Call Waiting Caller ID, the Caller
ID data is displayed so you can decide whether to answer the incoming call, or continue
with your current conversation. Your VT
2650
can hold up to 50 CID entries.
Calls Log (Caller ID - Call Waiting)
As new Caller ID/Call Waiting ID records
are received, your Handsets' displays will
alert you to the new Caller ID records, for
example:
After you review all new Caller ID
records, the
NEW
call indication will be
turned off and the screen will show:
If the call log is full, the oldest entry is
deleted to make room for the new call. If
the call log is empty when you try to enter
to Call Log review, the following message
is displayed:
Reviewing Caller ID
You can review the Caller ID record via
the menu as described on the following
page or by pressing the key (quick
access key) while in idle mode, and the
Handset jumps directly to the Caller ID
review mode.

NOTES ABOUT CALLER ID & CALL WAITING CALLER ID
These are subscription services, provided by most telephone service
providers. You must subscribe to these services to get the benefits of these
features. If you do not subscribe to Caller ID services, you can still use your VT
2650
and the other features it offers.
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/or phone number from being sent.
Only one Handset may access CID Log at a time. If a second Handset attempts to
access the CID Log, they will receive the message NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME.
