We have 4 lines into our home.Only 1 phone has caller ID feature. Can I add this device to 2nd phone and have it provide caller ID information?

I would think so, yes, for the phone line you connect it to. I think call waiting caller ID is a feature you might need to subscribe to with the phone co., but incoming calls should be identified. Mine works fine so far.

The caller ID information comes down the telephone line from the telephone company between the first and second ring. This device will show that information whenever connected to a line that you are paying the phone company for caller ID.

Yes indeed the phone has two separate line plug ins and the Caller ID stays up after you answered the call. Hope my answer to your questions were helpful.

If you take a look at this document, it appears you can, but I'm not guaranteeing it. Take a look. I think you can add a number of them, but only one can communicate at a time. As a note, these are very high quality units. Here's the document if it will show OK on Amazon. http://www.leedan.com/AIPHONE%20C-123LW%20Wiring.pdf

You can plug two different phone lines (different numbers) into the same phone and be able to answer either number using the same phone. You can also conference the two lines together. I use one in my home office so I can answer my office or home phone fro the same unit.

Yes, however your phone service has to have this feature turned on. The phone will capture the caller ID.

The manual has no discussion of using 2 Homesitters, but I think it would work to set one unit to answer on 5 rings and the other one to answer in 10 rings (dip switch toggle). Important to know know how to cancel alert call backs remotely. And you would not be able to distinguish which Homesitter was sending a call alert, so would have to cancel both.

Yes it will if you split the signal coming from the jack to both phone's base station and to the device.The device does have a pass through, but if you phone signal isn't strong enough, then you don't get the caller ID on your phone. I split the signal from the jack for mine and it works fine.

Not sure why that would be mentioned...caller ID only displays on the base. Great phone...good clarity and features!

No, picking up a second handset just joins you with the current call. You would need multiple lines to accomplish that, as a business might have

I called Uniden and asked. The only thing they could tell me is that the 9466 allows you to enter two numbers for each phone book entry where the 8866 allowed only one.

Having only gotten this unit on November 6th I haven't had to use this feature and I'm not certain, but the owner's manual says that as long as you subscribe to 'caller ID' service you can store up to 30 numbers in the "Call Block" list. It also allows you to reject any calls automatically if they come from a phone with their number blocked. Hope that helps.

TAPI here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephony_Application_Programming_Interface Caller ID is thru the phone and if you connect a phone to the phone port line out (not line in) then it is just a pass thru. Once in the old days we wanted to test a modem in a computer and didn't have enough phone cable. So we used 2 modems (line in to line out) to connect 3 phone lines for the distance. Summary? TAPI > I don't know. Caller ID on a phone connected to line out, yes because it is just a pass thru module. Tom

You can store numbers from the caller id list to your directory, which means you can change the names of the callers and the phone will announce the name that is tied to that number. I am assuming that you do have caller id through your carrier. For example: the name is Doe Susan - you changed it to Susan and the phone will announce Susan

Yes you can via , select "menu"...scroll down to "initial settings" and select it ....then scroll down to "talking caller ID" and select it ...this is where you can also select on/off talking caller ID for either handset and/or base unit.

If you are wishing to add second phone # line, then no that is not an option.

Yes, my phone supports caller ID call waiting. Great phone and it's nice having 2 handsets as well as the base phone.billyd21421@gmail.com

Yes, Bob, you do. FYI This caller id did not last very long. My phone quit working and the phone people realized that it was a faulty caller id.I junked it and ordered a Bellsouth product. I have always had good results from their products.
