Automated Call Block

Automated call block
With automated call block, the unit screens
incoming calls before ringing for allowed calls,
or ends the calls without ringing for calls
identified as robocalls, telemarketing calls, or
other undesirable calls (Caller ID subscribers
only).
The unit will play the greeting message for
automated call block and prompt the caller to
enter an access code in order for the unit to
identify whether the call is automated.
You can set the unit to block or unblock mode.
The default setting is “Unblock”.
Note:
R The unit connects the call without
prompting to enter the access code in the
following situations:
– the caller's phone number matches an
entry in the phonebook (page 44).
– the caller's name matches an entry in
the allow name list (page 42).
– the caller's phone number is memorized
in the allowed number database
(page 41).
R If you have your cell phone connected via
Link to Cell, even if automated call block is
set to “Block”, incoming cellular calls will
still be connected automatically without
requiring the access code.
R If the number is stored in the call block list
(page 37), the unit disconnects the call
without playing the greeting message for
automated call block.
R The automated call block feature is not
available:
– when a landline call is being received
during a cellular call.
– during power backup operation
(page 29).
R When the answering system answers a call
from a caller who is not registered in the
phonebook, allow name list, or allowed
number database, the following operations
are delayed:
– answering a call
– remote turn on
– toll saver
R When the unit receives a call from a caller
who is not registered in the phonebook,

allow name list, or allow number database
in the following situations, the unit shifts to
standby mode:
– when searching the phonebook, caller
list, redial list, call block list, or allow
name list
– when programming (depending on
settings)
– when using the answering system
– when paging all handsets or base unit
R Blocked calls are logged in the caller list.
We recommend you to check the caller list
periodically. If neccessary, register the
entry to the phonebook or allow name list to
connect the call next time.

Allowed number database
Once the caller enters the access code, the
caller's phone number is memorized in the
allowed number database as an unblocked
number. Callers from this database are
allowed to connect without the access code
from their next call.
100 entries can be stored to the database (22
digits max. each).
Note:
R When the database memory is full, the
latest call received will replace the oldest
number stored in the list.
R The numbers stored in the database will be
erased when you change the access code
(page 42).
R The numbers stored in the database cannot
be displayed.

Useful Information

Voicemail service for
landline
In addition to your unit’s answering system
you may also have voicemail service from
your phone service provider. Voicemail is
an answering service that may be offered by
your phone service provider. This service can
also record calls when you are unavailable to
answer the phone or when your line is busy.
Messages are recorded on the phone
company system and not on the unit's
answering system.
R To use the voicemail service rather than the
unit’s answering system, turn off the
answering system (page 73).
If you have unit’s answering system set to on
and also the voicemail enabled, the system
with least amount of rings will record the
message first.
Example:
If the unit’s answering system is set to 4 rings
(page 78) and the voicemail answering system
provided by your phone company is set to 6
rings (call your service provider), the unit’s
answering system will record the incoming call
first.

Storing the voicemail (VM)
access number
In order to listen to your voicemail messages,
you must dial your phone service provider’s
voicemail access number. Once you have
stored your voicemail access number, you can
dial it automatically (page 81).

Voicemail (VM) tone detection
Handset / Base unit
Your phone service provider sends special
signals (sometimes called “voicemail tones” or
“stutter tones”) to the unit to let you know you
have new voicemail messages. If you hear a
series of dial tones followed by a continuous
N on the handset
dial tone after you press M
or press MZN on the base unit, you have new
voicemail messages. Soon after you hang up
a call or after the phone stops ringing, your
unit checks the phone line to see if new
voicemail messages have been recorded.
Turn this feature off when:
– You do not subscribe to voicemail service.
– Your phone service provider does not send
voicemail tones.
– Your phone is connected to a PBX.
If you are not sure which setting is required,
contact your phone service provider.

NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
– Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the

– Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.
Some cordless telephones operate at
frequencies that may cause interference to
nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or
prevent such interference, the base of the
cordless telephone should not be placed
near or on top of a TV or VCR. If
interference is experienced, move the
cordless telephone further away from the TV
