Caller ID Service

Using Caller ID service

Ann 555-321-5555
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use Caller ID features, you must subscribe to your telephone company’s Caller ID service.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received, the calling party’s name and telephone number are displayed. Caller information for the last 50 different callers is logged in the caller list, allowing you to return missed calls. Caller information is stored by the most recent call to the oldest.
L Generally caller information is displayed
from the 2nd ring.
L If the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following is displayed:
–“Out of area”: The caller dialed
from an area which does not provide Caller ID service.
–“Private caller”: The caller
requested not to send caller information.
–“Long distance”: The caller called
you long distance.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
Private name display
When caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the phonebook, the stored name is displayed and logged in the caller list.
Call Waiting Caller ID display
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID services, the 2nd caller’s information is displayed after you hear a Call Waiting tone (page 19).
Note:
L Please contact your telephone company
for details and availability of this service in your area.
Talking Caller ID
This feature lets you know who is calling without looking at the display. When a call comes in, the unit announces the caller’s name displayed on the unit following every ring. To use this feature, you must subscribe to your telephone company’s Caller ID service.
L Name pronunciation may vary. This
feature may not pronounce all names correctly.
L Caller ID supports names of up to 15
letters. If the caller’s name has more than 15 letters, the name is not displayed or announced correctly.
L Usually the unit announces the caller’s
name after the 2nd ring.
L When you receive a call while on the
phone, the 2nd caller’s name is not announced even if you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID services.
L This feature can be turned on or off

Caller ID Service
Ringer ID
This feature can help you identify who is calling by using different ringers for different callers stored in the phonebook (page 21). You can assign a different ringer to each phonebook item. When a call is received from a caller stored in the phonebook, the ringer is used after Caller ID information is displayed.
Picture ID
This feature can help you identify who is calling by using different pictures for different callers stored in the phonebook (page 21). You can assign a different picture to each phonebook item. When a call is received from a caller stored in the phonebook, the picture is used after Caller ID information is displayed.
Note:
L When both lines receive calls at the
same time, picture IDs are not displayed for either line, even after one line answers the call individually.

Caller list

Caller information for the last 50 different callers is logged in the caller list. You can use this list to return missed calls.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the call as a missed call. The number of missed calls is shown on the display. This lets you know if you should view the caller list to see who called while you were out.

Video Phone

Video phone feature

The unit can be used to make and answer video calls, which allow you and the person you are talking to to see each other in real time.
Important:
L In order to use this feature on an
intercom call, you must have another compatible Panasonic unit (KX-THA12/ KX-THA16/KX-THA17).
L During a video call, the call waiting tone
is not heard and you cannot answer the 2nd call on the same line.
L Only 1 person at a time can have a video
call with an outside party.
Note:
L It may take time to connect the video call
between you and the other party. When the video connection is completed, “Preparing” disappears from the display and you can start talking with the other party.
L For privacy, you can set privacy image
(page 31) in advance. When a video call starts, the unit sends the privacy image to the other party instead of your live video.
L If you subscribe to Call Waiting service,
the call waiting signal may disrupt the video call. To keep the line quality stable, you may temporarily disable Call Waiting service before making a call. Please consult your service provider for the code to disable this service.
Compatibility
To have a video call with the other party, the other party must also have a compatible Panasonic unit (KX-THA12/ KX-THA16/KX-THA17) with the base unit (KX-TH102) or ITU-T H.324 compatible device. To maximize the performance capabilities, we highly recommend that both you and the other party have a compatible Panasonic unit (KX-THA12/ KX-THA16/KX-THA17) to have a video call.
L Depending on the compatibility of the
other party’s video phone, both video and voice call may be disconnected even if you press {VIDEO OFF} or
{VIDEO} to switch to a voice call.
Connection quality
The quality of video calls depends on the quality of the connection between your phone and the other party’s phone. If connection quality degrades during a video call and k or l turns red, the unit may change the call to a voice call automatically and the video connection may end.
Making a video call
1 During a call, press {VIDEO ON} or
{VIDEO} to start the video call. L Aim the camera lens toward yourself
by rotating the lens.
L Your unit displays a view of yourself
until the video call is connected, then it displays the live video of the other party.
