Lines 1 and 2 show calling information.
• When you’re not using the phone, lines 1 and 2 are
blank. However, if you’ve used a Posted Message (to alert
others with display phones), that message appears on
line 1 as a reminder. (See "Messaging" in Chapter 4 for
more information on Posted Messages.)
• When you’re receiving a call, lines 1 and 2 show the call
type—inside, outside, forward,orreturning (a call you
directed is returning to you)—and who made the call
(name or extension for inside calls, or the trunk the call
came in on for outside calls). If your company subscribes to
AT&T’s INFO2 automatic number identification (ANI) service,
the outside caller’s number displays on line 1.
Note: The availability of the caller identification information
may be limited by local-serving (caller’s) jurisdiction, availability,
or central office equipment.
• When you’re making an inside call, line 1 shows your
co-worker’s name and extension.
• When you’re making an outside call, line 1 shows the
name of the trunk you’re using and the number you’re dialing.
