Caller's name Caller's number Entry number: N = New call # = Old call CHRIS THOMPSON 908-555-0100 11:29 A Oct4 N01 Time of call ^ CID V Date of call Handset: 50 entries Base: 50 entries Your call log holds up to 50 entries. You can review the call log to find out who has called, return the call without dialing, or copy the caller's name and number into your phonebook. When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for new incoming call information. If you answer a call before the information appears on the screen, it will not be saved in your call log. Handset and base call logs There are separate Caller ID logs in the handset and the base. Each entry can contain a number up to 16 digits, and a name up to 16 letters long. The procedure for viewing, dialing, deleting and transferring call log entries to your phonebook is the same for both the handset and the base. About names If the telephone number of the person calling matches a number in your phonebook, the name that appears on screen will match the name as you entered it into your phonebook. (Example: If "Christine Smith" calls, her name will appear as "Chris" if this is how you entered it into your phonebook. ) 21 91-5621-40-00_E2555 CIB2_R2. qxd 6/5/2006 5:51 PM Page 22 Caller ID Logs HANDSET 1 REDIAL MENU MEM To review your call log To review your call log The most recent call is displayed first.
