Caller ID Blocking

Normally the caller ID for out-bound calls will be transmitted, independent on the phone used. This feature depends on your telco service provider.

Sometimes it may be useful not to transmit the caller ID, but case of an emergency call the caller ID is always transmitted, even if you did activate Caller ID Blocking.

For analog and ISDN accounts use the Expert Mode to (de)activate Caller ID Blocking.

Please confer to the instruction provided by your telco service provider.

An analog phone has to be capable for digital data transmission and has to have a display for showing the Caller ID for in-bound calls.
