4.5.6. Alphanumeric Display

The alphanumeric display is a two row, 32-digit LCD that is used to show the
activity of the phone. Some examples are:

• date and time

• feature names

• error messages

• called/calling identification

• phone status

• line selection

• Display Key prompts

The data used to display information in the LCD alphanumeric display is in
ASCII format. When the telephone is not in use, the display normally shows
the date and time. The content of the display is changed automatically (e.g.,
receiving an incoming call, making an outgoing call, or activating a feature).
