How the caller ID history (caller ID log) works
The telephone stores caller ID information about the last 50 incoming calls
in the telephone base. Entries are stored in reverse chronological order. The
phone deletes the oldest entry when the log is full to make room for new
calls. This information is common to all handsets, so changes made using any
handset are reflected in all other handsets. If you answer a call before the
information appears on the screen, it does not show in the caller ID history.
NOTE:
If the phone number has more than 24 digits, it will not be saved or shown in the caller
ID log.
Missed (new) call indicator
When a cordless handset is in idle mode and has new or missed calls, its
screen shows XX Missed calls.
All new and missed entries are counted as missed calls. Each time you review
a new caller ID log entry (indicated by NEW on the screen), the number of
missed calls decreases by one.
If you do not want to review the missed calls one by one, but still want to
keep them in the caller ID history, you can press and hold
handset for four seconds when the handset is idle. You will hear a confirmation
tone. All the entries in the caller ID log become old (reviewed already), and the
missed calls message goes away.
Memory match
If the incoming telephone number matches the last 7 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 Christine Smith calls, her name appears as Chris if this is how
you entered it into your directory.
NOTE:
The number you see on your caller ID is in the format sent by the telephone service
provider. It usually delivers 10-digit telephone numbers (area code plus telephone number). If
the last 7 digits of the incoming telephone number do not match a number in your directory,
the name appears as it is delivered by the telephone service provider.
