59Caller IDAbout the caller IDThis telephone supports caller ID services that most telephone service providers offer. Caller ID allows you to see the name, number, date and time of calls. Depending on your service subscription, you might see the caller’s number, or the caller’s name and number from the telephone service provider after the first or second ring. Caller ID information might not be available for every incoming call. Callers may intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers.This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service and if both telephone service providers use compatible equipment.Information about caller ID with call waitingCaller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and telephone number of the caller before answering the telephone, and while on another call. There are fees associated with caller ID services. In addition, this service might be called by different names (such as caller ID with visual call waiting) by different telephone service providers and might not be available in all areas. It might be necessary to change telephone service to use this feature. Contact your telephone service provider if: You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you might need to combine these services).You only have caller ID service, or only call waiting service.You do not subscribe to caller ID or call waiting services.NOTES: You can use this telephone with regular caller ID service, or you can use this telephone’s other features without subscribing to caller ID or caller ID combined with call waiting service. The format of telephone numbers displayed depends on the home and local area codes you set (See Area codes on page 36 for explanations and instructions on area code settings).•••1.2.
60Caller IDCaller ID informationHow the caller ID information (call log) worksThe telephone stores caller ID information for the last 200 incoming calls in the console. Entries are stored in reverse chronological order. The telephone deletes the oldest entry when the log is full to make room for new calls. Each extension has independent caller ID information. Deleting the caller ID information on any one extension does not affect the caller ID information on other extensions. If you answer a call before the information appears on the screen, it does not show in the caller ID information. Review the caller ID information to determine who called, to easily return the call, or to copy the caller’s name and number into your directory. NEW indicator turns on and XX Missed call(s) appears if there are new call log entries (including new or missed calls). The time and date of the call and the caller’s name and telephone number are included in the display. Caller ID information appears on the screen as the telephone rings, or until the caller hangs up, or until the call has been answered at another extension, or until the call ends. If you subscribe to caller ID service, this phone automatically resets the time and date each time new call information is received. You can also set the time and date yourself (see Set date and time on page 29).NOTES: 1. The caller ID information might not be available for every incoming call. Callers might intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers. 2. Each entry can store up to 24 digits for the telephone number and 15 characters for the name. If the telephone number has more than 16 digits but less than or equal to 24 digits, only the last 17 digits appear. If the telephone number has more than 24 digits, only the 8th to 24th digits (17 digits) appear. If the telephone number has more than 24 digits, it is not saved or shown in the call history. Caller IDCaller ID information
61Caller IDCaller ID operationMemory matchIf the incoming telephone number is an exact match with a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen matches the corresponding name in your directory. For example, if Christine Smith calls, her name appears as Chris if this is how you entered it into your directory. NOTE: The number you see on your caller ID is in the format from the telephone service provider. It usually delivers 10-digit telephone numbers (area code plus telephone number). The telephone system ignores the area code when searching for a match and displays the name of the first corresponding number from the directory.Missed (new) calls indicatorWhen the console is in idle mode and has new or missed calls, its screen shows XX Missed call(s).All new or missed entries are counted as missed calls. Each time you review a call history entry with the icon new, the number of missed calls decreases by one. When all the entries in the caller ID information become old (have been reviewed), the system removes the missed calls alert from the display, and the NEW indicator turns off. Review the caller ID informationWhen the console is idle, press CALL HISTORY.2. Press   or   to review the caller ID information.

74Answering systemAbout the auto attendantYou telephone system has two mailboxes, namely the central mailbox and private mailbox. If the auto attendant feature is off but the private mailbox is on, callers can leaves messages in the private mailbox like an ordinary answering system. If the auto attendant feature is on, it can store three kinds of messages, private messages, central messages or system extension messages.If both the auto attendant and private mailbox are turned on and you want the auto attendant instead of the private mailbox to pick up an incoming call, make sure you set the Auto ATT Delay of the auto attendant at a shorter time than that of the private mailbox. The auto attendant feature only works with a multi-phone system. Make sure you have purchased MS2015 extension to expand your system before using this feature. Only this MS2085 Console can serve as an auto attendant in the telephone system and it redirects an incoming call from a shared outside line to another phone in the same system. An auto attendant can only answer one call at a time. NOTES: Only outside calls are answered by an auto attendant. The auto attendant phone does not answer calls when the phone is being used for setup, message review, call history review, or a phone call.If an auto attendant is active, adjust the delay times for different features to let the auto attendant system answer outside calls. The private mailbox time (see Private mailbox delay on page 69) of the console must be longer than the auto attendant answer delay time (see Auto attendant delay on page 66).Answering system capacityYou can record up to four outgoing announcements and a directory announcement for the auto attendant, and one announcement for the private mailbox. Each announcement can be up to two minutes. Auto attendant and private mailbox announcements both require system memory to record, so we suggest recording brief announcements in order to leave more space for messages.The maximum recording time of the console is 60 minutes. The actual recording time depends on individual message characteristics. Messages remain available for review until you delete them. If the system memory is full, the screen displays Memory is full, and you cannot record new messages until old ones have been deleted. Check remaining system space frequently to maintain availability of space for incoming messages.NOTE: You cannot record an announcement when the telephone system is out of space. You will hear a two-beep alert tone and voice prompt “Memory is full.”1.2.
75Answering systemAuto attendant operationUsing the auto attendant When auto attendant is on, it automatically picks up a ringing line after the pickup delay time you programmed (see Auto attendant delay on page 66),and plays the appropriate auto attendant announcement. You can choose from the following options.Enter an extension number after the auto attendant announcement is played. The system plays the default announcement ”Calling thatextension, Please wait.”If the destination extension does not answer after around 12 seconds, the call will be directed to the Console. If the call is not picked up after 45 seconds, the auto attendant answers the call again and announces, “That extension is not answering. Enter a new extension number, or,to leave a central message in the general mailbox, please dial nine.” If the caller does not enter a command in 12 seconds, the auto attendant announces, “That extension is not answering. Thank you.” and drops the call.If the destination extension does not pick up after around 45 seconds,the system announces, “That extension is not answering. Enter a new extension number, or, to leave a central message in the general mailbox, please dial 9.”If the private mailbox on the destination extension is on and the call is not picked up after the programmed delay time, the extension announces, “Hello, please leave a message after the tone,” then you can record a private message in that extension mailbox.Press 9 to enter central mailbox and leave a message. Press 0 to play the directory announcement. The caller can then decide whether to enter an extension number or not, and the auto attendant responds as described above.Enter the remote access code when the auto attendant announcement is being played to access the answering system remotely.
