FEATURES
Your RadioShack Caller ID System 2000 is the latest in telephone Caller ID
technology. If Caller ID service is avai lable in your area and you subscribe
to it, the telephone company sends the caller’s telephone number (and
name, if available in your area) and t he date and time of the call between
the first and second rings. The module displays this information during an
incoming call to help you identify the caller and avoid unwanted call s.
You can connect the module to one or two phone lines, and an answering machine if desired. The module’s display shows which line received
the incoming call.
The module stores and di splays up to 100 single (number only) or multiple (name and number) Calle r ID re cords.
Your module includes these features:
Easy Installation
so you can quickly begin using it.

and FCC standards.
Important Information:
• To use this module, you must be in an area where Caller ID service

FCC INFORMATION
We have designed your module to conform to federal regulations, and
you can connect it to most telep hone li nes. However, each module (and
each device, such as a telephone or answering machine) that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the line. We refer to this
power draw as the module’s ringer equivalence number or REN. The
REN is shown on the bottom of the module.
If you use more than one telephone or other device on the line, add up
all of the RENs. If the total is more than five, your telephone might not
ring. In rural areas, a total REN of three might impair ringer operation. If
ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.
Your module complies with Part 68 of
quest, provide the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) registration number and the REN to your telephone company. Both numbers
are shown on the bottom of the mo dule.
Note:
You must not connect your module to:
• Coin-operated systems
• Party-li ne systems
• Most electroni c key telephone system s

FCC Rules
. You mus t, upon re-
43-972 .fm Page 7 Monday, August 16, 1999 4:19 PM
In the unlikely event that your module causes problems on the phone line,
the phone company can temporarily disconnect your service. If this happens, the phone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the phone company notifies you as soon as possible
and advises you of your right to file a complaint wit h the FCC.
Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of this module. The
phone company notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take
the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your telephone service.
This module complies with the limits for a Class B device as specified in
Part 15 of
FCC Rules
. These limits provide reasonable protection against
radio and TV interference in a residential area. However, your module
might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating properly.
To eliminate interf erence, you can try one or more of the fol lowing:
• Reorient or relocate the radio or TV receiving antenna
• Increase the distance between the module and the radi o or TV
• Use outlets on different electrical circuits for the module and the
radio or TV

43-972 .fm Page 8 Monday, August 16, 1999 4:19 PM
Consult your local RadioShack store if the pro blem continues.
If your module is not performing as it should, check its connection to
your phones and the phone lines. If you are unable to locate the problem, take your module to your local RadioShack st ore for assistance.

PREPARATION
CONNECTING THE SUPPLIED AC ADAPTER
The supplied AC adapter provides power for the module. Please note
that although the module displays a time and date when you connect
power, the displayed time and date are i ncorrect until the phone company sends the correct time and date during the first call.
Cautions:
• Use only the supplied AC adapter. Even other adapters that have the
same ratings as the recommended adapter might not work properly.
• Always plug the AC adapter into the module’s
plugging the adapter’s plug into an AC outlet, and unplug the
adapter’s plug from the AC outlet before unplugging the adapter
from the module’s

43-972 .fm Page 13 Monday, August 16, 1999 4:19 PM
Notes:
• If AC power fails or if the AC adapter is disconnected, the module
automatically tests the battery each time it receives a new call.
When appears on the display or the display dims (even after
you restore power), repl ace the battery.
• You must install a fresh battery within 5 seconds after you remove
the old one. Otherwise, you might lose the information stored in the
module.
Follow these steps to inst all or replace the batte ry.
1. If the phone lines and AC adapter are already connected, unplug
them from the module.

CONNECTING TO THE PHONES/PHONE LINES
The modu le con nects to your phone(s ) and the phon e line( s) usi ng four
modular phone line connectors. You can connect your module between a
two-line phone (or one or two one-line phones) and a two-line modular
phone line jack (or two one-line jacks). To use all of the module’s features,
you must connect it to two separate phone lines. Each of these lines must
have its ow n ph one nu mbe r. If you do not hav e two ph on e line s, cont act
your phone company to get a seco nd line.
Notes:
• If you connect the module to only one phone line, the module displays Caller ID inf ormation only for that line.
• If your phone lines do not have modular jacks, you can update the
wiring yourself. Or, you can have the telephone company update
your telephone wiri ng for you.
– RadioShack stores sell jacks and adapters to convert older wiring
methods to modular wirin g.
– The telephone comp any charges to install the necessary jacks.
– The USOC num ber of the ja ck to be ins talle d is RJ11C (for a one-
line phone line jack) or RJ14C (for a two-line phone line jack).

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RadioShack Caller ID System 2000 is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following sugg estions will help you care for
the module so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the module dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode the
electronic circuits.
Handle the module gently and carefully. Dropping it can
damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the
module to work improperly.
Use and store the module only in normal temperature
environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the
life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort
or melt plastic part s.
Keep the module away f rom dust and dirt, which can
cause premature wear of parts.
CLEANER

Wipe the module with a damp clot h occa sional ly to k eep
43-972 .fm Page 34 Monday, August 16, 1999 4:19 PM
Modifying or tampering with your module’s internal components can
cause a malfunction and might invalidate the module’s warranty. If your
module is not operating as it should, take it to your local RadioShack
store for assistance. If the trouble is harming the telephone lines, the
telephone company might ask you to disconnect your module until you
have resolved the problem.
LIGHTNING
Your module has buil t-in protection ci rcuits to reduce the risk of damage
from surges in telephone line current. These protection circuits meet or
exceed the FCC requirements. However, li ghtning striking the telepho ne
lines can damage your module.
Lightning damage is not common. However, if you live in an area that
has severe electrical storms, we suggest you unplug your module during storms to reduce the possibility of damage.
