Notes on calling line display
(CLIP)
By default, the number of the caller is shown
in the display of your Gigaset telephone. You
do not have to make any other settings on
your Gigaset telephone.
However, if the caller's number is not
displayed, this can be due to the
following:
u You have not ordered CLIP from your net-
work provider or
u Your telephone is connected via a PABX
or a router with an integrated PABX (gate-
way) that does not transmit all informa-
tion.
Is your telephone connected via a
PABX/gateway?
You can establish this by checking for an
additional device connected between your
telephone and house connection, e.g., a
PABX, gateway etc. In most cases, simply
resetting this device will remedy the situa-
tion:
¤ Briefly disconnect the mains plug of your
PABX. Re-insert the plug and wait for the
device to restart.
If the caller number is still not
displayed:
¤ Check the CLIP settings of your PABX and
activate this function if necessary. In the
user guide for the device, search for the
term "CLIP" (or an alternative term such
as "calling line identification", "phone
number transmission", "caller ID", ...).
If necessary, contact the device manufac-
turer.
If this does not resolve the problem, it is pos-
sible that your network provider does not
the CLIP service for this number.
