7.27 Using The Caller ID Feature

The Caller ID feature allows you to view incoming call numbers before
you answer them. Incoming call numbers flash in the lower half of the
LCD. If you answer the call, the number appears in the upper half of the
LCD.
The system also stores numbers that ring on your line but receive no
answer. The system indicates that it has stored ring-no answer numbers
by causing the CID light on your telephone to flash. Pressing the CID
button allows you to view the stored numbers one at time. Pressing the
SAVED NUMBER REDIAL button causes the system to dial the
displayed number. If the call has been returned by someone else,
pressing the ✳ key reveals who returned the call. Everyone sharing your
line can scroll through the stored numbers and choose which calls to
return.

NOTE: If your system installer has not programmed a SAVED

NUMBER REDIAL button, refer to section 9.4, Using The
Feature Buttons, for instructions on programming this button.

To scroll through ring-no answer numbers stored on your system,

1. If your CID light is flashing, the system has unreturned ring-no

answer numbers stored in memory.

2. To view the list of unreturned ring-no answer number, press the

preprogrammed CID button on your telephone. Your LCD will
display the calling number, date, and time the call came in. The
most recent call appears first in the list.

3. Press the CID button each time you wish to display the next most

recent ring-no answer call to your line.

4. To dial one of the numbers in the redial queue, press the SAVED

NUMBER REDIAL button. The system will automatically dial
the number.

Depending on your system programming, when a call is returned it might
remain in the ring-no answer queue or the system might delete it from
the ring-no answer queue. Your system installer can tell you how the
feature is programmed. If the system is programmed to leave a returned
number in the redial queue, the display will show a ✳ next to numbers
that have been returned.

To determine who viewed the number and returned the call,

1. Press ✳.
