The 800 GS/LS-ID module can be used in Release 3.0 and later
systems to capture Caller ID information (subscribed to from the
central office on loop-start lines only, if available). Beginning with
Release 7.0, companies can also use the 408 GS/LS-ID-MLX or 412
LS-ID-ETR module to capture Caller ID information. MLX, ETR, and
MLS display telephones show the number of an outside call
received on a line connected to the module. Beginning with Release
7.0, the name of the calling party also can be received. If the
customer also subscribes to central office call waiting through
Centrex, however, when the second call is answered by using
central office call waiting, the number/name of the waiting call is not
shown on the display.
A conference originator on an MLX display telephone can view
Caller ID information associated with any participant by pressing the
Inspct button and the button the caller is on.
Caller ID information is available to users receiving coverage calls.
No Caller ID is displayed if the call is answered before the Caller
ID data arrives. Calling Party Number information appears in the
PRI ANI format. If selected, Calling Party Name information
replaces the Calling Party Number information (Release 7.0 and
later systems). Outgoing calling information, however, is not
displayed.
Caller ID information is not displayed when a user turns on Do Not
Disturb. If a user turns on Do Not Disturb while receiving Caller ID
information, the information remains on the display.
The systemwide LS-ID delay, if programmed, is in addition to the
Forwarding Delay. The total delay is the LS-ID delay plus the
Forwarding Delay.
In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), Remote
Call Forwarding can be used in combination with Caller ID on a
loop-start PSTN line connected to a networked system's line/trunk
module with Caller ID capability. This allows Caller ID information to
be sent across a private network. For each of these module's, the
LS-ID Delay option must be programmed to On.
The user at the extension that first receives the Caller ID call from
the PSTN must turn Remote Call Forwarding on and specify
forwarding across the network, over PRI tandem trunks only, to a
non-local extension with an MLX, ETR, or MLS display telephone.
When the call is received on the destination MLX, ETR, or MLS
display telephone, the user sees the Caller ID information.
In Release 6.1 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), Delay
Forward can be used to send calls to a non-local extension across a
private network. Caller ID information is sent with the forwarded call
if PRI tandem trunks connect the systems.
