BT Versatility
Owner's Manual
Note: Your number will also be presented to persons you call on ISDN lines, unless you restrict
your number from being presented. Refer to page 101 for information on how to restrict your
number being displayed for calls made over ISDN lines.
As well as displaying the numbers of callers, your BT Versatility allows you to associate names
with caller numbers, and display the names in place of the numbers.

How a caller number is displayed at your Extension

• The caller's number will appear on the Display of all Featurephones programmed to ring for
incoming calls.
• If a name is associated with the number in either the system speed dial store or the CDS
store the name will be displayed.
• A caller may choose to withhold their identity. In this case, the Display will show 'Number
Withheld' instead of the caller's number or name.
• If the number information is not available the Display will show 'Number Unavailable'
instead of the caller's number or name.
• If more than one caller is calling at any one time, the number displayed will be that of the
first call in the queue. When this call is answered by one of the ringing Featurephones the
number of the next call in the queue will appear on the Displays of the other ringing
Featurephones.
• If your Featurephone is not ringing for the call you may examine the incoming call ID by
selecting 'Examine I/C Call'. The same information shown on the ringing Featurephones is
then displayed.
To set up your system to display caller numbers received on Analogue lines
(CDS service)

To associate a caller number with a name, and route its calls to an extension

Up to a hundred names, each a maximum of ten characters, (including spaces), may be
associated with caller telephone numbers. When a number with an associated name is received,
the name rather than the number is displayed.
Furthermore an extension number may also be associated with a telephone number. In this case
an incoming call from that number will ring at only that Extension. If the Extension is busy, the
call rings in as normal in the case of Analogue Lines and returns a busy signal in the case of ISDN
lines.
