CALLER ID OPERATION
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from your phone
company, the phone company sends information about the
call, as well as the time and date between the first and
second rings of every call you receive.
The system displays this information and stores up to 99
numbers only, or name and number, call records in its CID
memory, and then replaces the oldest call record with each
new one.
During an incoming call,
NEW
appears. If the caller’s name
has more than 16 characters, only the first 16 characters
appear. The New Call LED flashes until all calls are
reviewed.
If the CID information received duplicates another call in
memory, the system updates the time/date.
RPT
and the
number of times the call was repeated appear. If no button
is pressed within 30 seconds, the system returns to answer-
ready mode, and displays the total call counter, new call
counter, current time and date.

Caller ID Operation
If there is no voice message
attached to a repeat number, the
latest call appears once during CID
review. For example, if you receive
a call from the same number 10
times, the CID displays the number
once and
RPT 10
appears.
