Caller ID announce
The caller ID announce feature lets you know who’s calling without
having to look at the display. When you have an incoming call, the
handset and/or base speaks “Call from...” and the name of the caller
based on the directory or caller ID information. If the caller’s name is
private or unknown, the phone number up to the last 11 digits will be
announced. If the caller’s phone number is also private or unknown,
no information will be announced. The default setting is On.
To turn on or off the caller ID announce feature:
1. Press MENU/
SELECT in idle mode to enter the
main menu.
2. Use CID or DIR to scroll to Settings, then press
MENU/SELECT.
3. Use
CID or DIR to scroll to Caller ID annc,
then press MENU/SELECT.
4. Use CID or DIR to highlight the desired
option, then press MENU/SELECT.
Set all On/Off - Change the setting for the
base and all handsets.
Local handset - Change the setting for that
handset only.
Base - Change the setting for the telephone
base only.
5. Use
CID or DIR to highlight On or Off, then press
MENU/SELECT. There is a confirmation tone and the screen
returns to the previous menu. If you change the setting to Set all
On/Off, the screen shows CID Annc ON/OFF on all HS & BS.
NOTES:
To use the caller ID announce feature, you must subscribe to caller ID service from
your telephone service provider.
When there are up to five handsets registered, the telephone system supports caller
ID announce for all handsets. If six or more handsets are registered, the system sup-
ports caller ID announce for the first four registered handsets only.
