What does the Siemens Gigaset SL785 do when there is a call waiting? Can anyone tell me what the Siemens SL785 does?

About a month after posting my comment... and indeed, having to say, "Sorry, gotta hang up, I'll call you back" I accidentally discovered it--the "Flash" key, lower left on the keyboard. Duh--I felt so silly!! Hope this helps.

Hi - I had this phone in the US with no poblems. I've moved back to Australia and have encountered some issues which may be related to the banding that is referred to above. I have found that when I connect the phone line it calls the handset continuously. WHen you answer there is just a dial tone and static. Has anyone else had this or been able to resolve? In regard to the different voltage - you just need to buy an adaptor that converts the output to the same as the old adaptor. I think I paid $30 at Dick Smith's.

There is a delay of about 20 seconds on mine. And if you have it set to make phone calls, it increases the delay time until basically the first call has been attempted.

Sorry, I have the phone installed in my vacation home on the Cape and the owner's manual is there as well. It is caller ID capable, but not sure on the call waiting feature.

I think you should call your server personally and ask them about the big button. It is a great unit but I did not call my server and found out later that they did not support it. Make the call.

I have not had a problem with the call waiting. It is a separate function from the phone company that I purchased to allow the number to be shown.

If you have call waiting, and you are on a call and another call comes in, it will beep. Since it only works when the phone is off hook (handset is off the phone cradle) it cannot ring when there is an incoming call. The phone will ring, and then you need to remove the handset from the phone for the headset to connect. I think that with the handset lifter you can answer and pick up the call from the headset, but I do not have the lifter so I cannot answer fully. The Plantronics website has more details on how this works

The model I have does not show on the phone caller ID, although it does have a caller ID visible on the unit itself - the unit basically intercepts the calls before they can show on caller ID. I still use the Call Block and really like it. It would be nice if they could add that feature though.

Perhaps you have a bad unit. My units work fine though hard to clear all calls. I have to continually push the review arrows and finally the last number called will show. Have not had the all 8's on the two units I have in service.

If the caller presses the code, the Telebouncer disappears and you have a normal phone system. Be sure and tell everyone you WANT to hear from to type in the code. Many folks are initially put off by this if they are not expecting it. After they see how it works, most want one too. :)

Hi. This isn't responsable for controller the call it's only the appliance, but the Skype can make local calls, distance calls or international call. You always you dial to use (country number)+(state number)+(your number). Like 5511XXXXXXXX in my case. This not work for 911 calls. You will need use your cellphone for this.Regards

I don't know the answer to your question but I suspect that it is an eco-DECT.....not sure. May I ask an obvious question? Why does it matter? It sounds very important. If it is, it should be found in the product description. This is the best phone that I have ever owned. Every feature exceeds any other phone/answering machine that I have owned. It is far superior to anything that you can find in U.S retail stores. Siemens is a highly respected company from Germany. Good Luck. Please let me know what the EMF and eco-DECT designations men.

The headset has never announced the name for incoming calls for me. I believe this is because the phonebook was never downloaded from the phone to the headset when it was set-up/paired. I was using it with a G2X first, now I'm using it with a Samsung S4.

There is a flash feature which allows you to answer a call coming in and I assume that the other call will be on hold until you flash back. I could be wrong as I have not used this feature this way. I usually just tell the call I am on that I need to answer the other call and they hang up. Hope this helps. I like the phone a lot.
