Caller Id - Samsung DS 24D User Manual

WHAT IS CALLER ID?
Caller ID or Calling Line ID Presentation (CLIP) is the name given to the
Telephone Company provided feature that delivers the telephone number
and sometimes the name of the person calling your phone.
The Samsung DCS system supports Caller ID and in fact in the case where
the number only is delivered, the system can be programmed to insert a
name for a specific telephone number received. Up to a maximum of 200
numbers depending on the type of DCS Telephone system you have
installed.
Caller ID is provided by telephone companies as a charged service on both
ISDN and analog PSTN lines. However, there are some circumstances
where you will not receive the information. The most common reasons for
this are:
• The caller has requested the Telephone Company to stop their tele-
phone number being sent.
• The Caller is calling from an area that cannot provide Caller ID eg.
International calls.
• Callers are ringing from a Pay phone.
• The Caller ID information is corrupted when received from the telephone
company.
• The Telephone Company does not send the Caller ID.
• The Telephone Company may send the name MOBILE to the system.
