Caller ID Log
Caller ID Log
Shared Caller ID Log
The Caller ID Log is stored in the base, and is shared by all
handsets. Changes made at any one handset will be reflected
in all.
How Caller ID works
If you subscribe to Caller ID service provided by your local
phone company, information about each caller will be dis-
played after the first ring.
Information about the last 50 incoming calls is stored in the
call log. You can review the call log to find out who has called,
easily return the call, or copy the caller’s name and number
into your directory.
When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make
room for new incoming call information.
If you answer a call before the information appears on the
screen, it will not be saved in the call log.
NOTE
: Only one handset can review the call log at a time. If another
handset attempts to enter the call log, it will display NOT AVAILABLE AT
THIS TIME.
NOTE
: Caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in
areas offering Caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compati-
ble equipment.
About names
Names of callers will be displayed only if this information is
provided by your local telephone company.
If the telephone number of the person calling exactly matches
a number in your directory, the name that appears on screen
will match the name as you entered it into your directory.
(Example: If Christine Smith calls, her name will appear as
Chris if this is how you entered it into your directory.)
