Caller ID LCD and Icons
Caller ID information is displayed on the Base
LCD module. Each ICON has a specific
function.
New Call Icon (NEW CALL)
When activated, this icon alerts the
users that new calls have been
received. The NEW CALL icon will
remain on until all new calls are
reviewed.
Call Counter (CALL#)
This two digit counter indicates the
position of CID record relative to other records
stored in CID memory.
Repeat Counter (RPT#)
This digit counter is used to indicate when a
specific call has been received more than
once. If a call had been received twice, the
RPT# counter would show a 1. The repeat
counter is only active during Caller ID review
when a repeat call comes in.
DATE / TIME Stamp
The date and time fields are used to display
the date and time information
of a Caller ID record. Also, if no keys
on the Caller ID module are touched
for 30 seconds, the display will default to
Clock mode, and display the current date
and time.
Message Waiting Icon (MSG)
The VTECH VT9121 is capable of
detecting a visual Message Waiting
signal generated by some local phone com-
pany Voice Mail systems. If you
subscribe to Voice Mail services, and
the visual Message Waiting signal is
provided by your local telephone
company, the MSG icon will be
displayed when you have new
messages waiting. If you do not
use Voice Mail services, the
MSG icon will not be utilized.
Once you have checked your Voicemail mes-
sages, the central telephone office will send
a signal to deactivate visual Message Wait-
ing and the VTECH VT9121 will automatically
deactivate the MSG icon.
You must be in an area where Voice mail
service is available and you must subscribe
to this service to use this feature.

The center line of the LCD is made up
of 14 complete digits. This area of the LCD is
used to display the phone
number information of a Caller ID
message. The displayed phone
number will be right hand aligned. If
the phone number is not available, this part
of the display will be blank.

The bottom line of the LCD consists of
15 5x5 dot matrix characters. The
VTECH VT9121 is capable of
