Directory

The directory can store up to 30 entries,
which are shared by all handsets. Each
entry may consist of a telephone number
up to 30 digits, and a name up to
15 characters.
Each handset directory is independent
(for multiple handset models only). Any
additions, deletions or edits made on
one handset are not reflected on other
handsets.
If the telephone number in the directory
exceeds 15 digits, a dash appears after
the 14th digit and then the remaining
digits are shown beginning with a dash,

Caller ID

If you subscribe to caller ID service,
information about each caller appears after
the first or second ring. If you answer a call
before the caller information appears on
the screen, it will not be saved in the caller
ID log.
The caller ID log stores up to 30 entries.
Each entry has up to 24 digits for the
phone number and 15 characters for the
name.
If the telephone number has more that 15
digits, only the last 15 digits appear.
If the name has more than 15 characters,
only the first 15 characters are shown and
saved in the caller ID log.
Entries appear in reverse chronological
order. When the caller ID log is full, the
oldest entry is deleted to make room for
new incoming call information.
Caller ID log entries are shared by all
system handsets (for multiple handset
models only). Any deletions made on
one handset are reflected on all other
handsets.
NOTE
• This product can provide information
only if both you and the caller are in areas
offering caller ID service and if both
telephone service providers use compatible
equipment. The time and date are sent by
your telephone service provider along with
the call information.
