Caller Id Alpha Tagging - Panasonic DBS576 Technical Manual

Section 700 - Operation
• Caller ID service must be ordered from the local telephone operating company or the
interexchange carrier.
• Caller ID data is usually sent between the first and the second rings of the incoming trunk call.
The trunk may be programmed to immediately ring at the station or wait until after the Caller ID
digits are received before ringing at the station. If the trunk is programmed to ring immediately,
the Caller ID digits will not display until after they are received and processed.
• Caller ID numbers may be denied from being sent for some callers (private). Some long distance
carriers may not provide Caller ID data (out of area).
• Prior to Version 3.0, Caller ID supported only the number format. Version 3.0 and higher
supports selection of the number or name.
• In Version 3.0, Caller ID displays the highest ringing priority call (call queued to ring at the
target extension immediately after the present call terminates).

Caller ID Alpha Tagging

Description
If the received Caller ID phone number matches any number in the System Speed Dials (SSD000-
SSD199), then the associated System Speed Dial name can be displayed as the Caller ID information.
Alternatively, the DID name may be displayed instead.
In Version 3.0 and higher, Caller ID information will be shown on the second line of the LCD display
when an incoming call rings a display phone with a conversation already in progress. Second
incoming calls include extension Camp-on, extension Call Wait, queued DIL, both Appearance and
non-Appearance calls (CO, MCO, virtual or DN, recall, BLF).
Hardware Requirements
• ISDN (PRI = VB-44540, BRI = VB-44530)
Related Programming
• FF1-0-01: System (Alpha Tagging)
Considerations
• The system may be set to display Caller ID in one of two priorities as follows:
Priority Choice 1
• CID name (future feature)
• Alpha tagging if matched
• DID name
Priority Choice 2
• DID name
• CID name (future feature)
• Alpha tagging if matched
• Currently Caller ID only supports the single format (number only). Multiple format (number and
name) is not currently available but is planned as a future feature.
• Caller ID Call Logging only shows the CID number.
