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 the telephone base and all handsets, so changes
made using any handset or the telephone base 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 15 digits, only the last 15 digits will be saved or
shown in the caller ID log.
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.
