CALLER-ID
Functioning:
Together with the first ring, the Telephone Company sends the telephonenumber
of the person who is calling to you.This can also be the telephonenumber of a
fax or of a mobile phone.
On receipt of this information, the display of the TX-168PHB shows this number
and stores it into its memory.
Because the numbers are stored in memory, at any time you can see who called
you and at what time and day.The display indicates how many calls are in
memory and how many calls are received after the last time you viewed the
numbers.
Please note that you must subscribe yourself for Caller-ID. Contact your provider.
Memory:
The memory can hold 30 incoming calls (numbers + names).When the memory
is full, each new incoming call will overwrite the oldest call. Please make sure to
regular read the memory and to delete it contents.The display indicates how
many calls are in memory (TOTAL) and how many of them have not been read
yet (NEW).
Name:
In case you receive a call from someone which name and number you have sto-
red in the phonebook memory of the TX-168PHB, then the name you program-
med in your telephone will come on the display. Else the name which is transmit-
ted from the provider will be displayed. In case the provider only sends the num-
ber and you have not stored this number in your telephone, than only the number
will come on the display.
Repeated call:
A repeated call will be displayed as "RPT" in the display.The information concer-
ning the first call will be lost, only the time and date of the last call will be memo-
rized.
Time/date:
The time and date of each call are memorized too. In case your provider uses
the FSK Caller-ID system, the network provides the time/date information. In
case your provider uses the DTMF system, the time/date of the internal clock of
the TX-168PHB will be used.
