Caller ID

Caller ID log
If you subscribe to caller ID service provided by your telephone service provider
and/or cell phone service provider, information about each caller will appear after
the first or second ring. If you answer a call before the caller’s information appears,
it will not be saved in the caller ID log.
The caller ID log stores up to 50 entries. Each entry has up to 24 digits for
the phone number and 15 characters for the name. If the phone number has
more than 15 digits, only the last 15 digits appear. If the name has more
than 15 characters, only the first 15 characters are shown and saved in the
caller ID log.
Caller ID log entries are shared by all system devices. Any modifications made
on one handset apply to all system devices.
You can review, redial, and copy an entry into the directory.
Entries appear in reverse chronological order.
When the caller ID log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for new
incoming call information.
XX missed calls shows when there are new caller ID log entries that have not
been reviewed.
Call log empty shows when you access the caller ID log without records.
Only one system device can review the caller ID log at a time. If a system device
tries to enter the caller ID log while another system device is already in it, its
screen displays Not available.
Memory match
If the incoming telephone number matches the last seven digits of a telephone
number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen matches the
corresponding name in your directory.
For example, if Mike Smith calls, his name appears as
Mike if this is how you
entered it into your directory.
The number shown in the caller ID log will be in the format sent by the telephone
service provider. The telephone service provider usually delivers 10-digit phone
numbers (area code plus telephone number). If the phone number of the caller does
not match a number in your directory, the name will appear as it is delivered by the
telephone service provider.
