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 o the caller ID announce feature:
1. Press MENU in idle mode to enter the main menu.
2. Press
CID or
DIR on the handset, or press qCALLER ID or
pDIRECTORY on the telephone base to scroll to Caller ID
annc, then press SELECT.
3. Press
CID or
DIR on the handset, or press qCALLER ID
or pDIRECTORY on the telephone base to highlight On or
Off, then press SELECT. There is a confirmation tone. The
handset and telephone base screen show CID Annc ON/OFF
on all HS & BS briefly before returning to the previous menu.
Notes:
f To use the caller ID announce feature, you must subscribe to caller ID service from
your telephone service provider.
f If you have paired an AT&T TL80133 DECT 6.0 cordless speakerphone to the telephone
base, the caller ID announce setting for all devices also applies to the cordless speak-
erphone. When the setting is On, the cordless speakerphone speaks “Call from...”
and the name of the caller based on the directory or caller ID information during an
incoming call. If the caller’s name is unavailable, the phone number up to the last 11
digits will be announced.
f 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 supports caller ID announce for the
first four registered handsets only.
f This feature does not announce information for call waiting calls.
f It takes at least 2 rings for the phone to receive caller ID information and announce it. If the phone is answered
before the end of the second ring, the phone will not have time to announce the caller’s information.
f Pronunciation of names may vary with this feature. Not all names may be pronounced correctly.
f When this feature is on, the telephone plays both the caller ID information and the ringer at the same time when
there is an incoming call.
f Caller ID announce is available in English only.
