- Hi, this is what my manual say's about CallerID :
-
-
- 3.6. CALLER ID COMMANDS
-
- 3.6.1. AT#CID Command
-
- #CIDn - Caller ID
-
- Enables or disables Caller ID.
-
- #CID=0 Disables Caller ID. (Default.)
-
- #CID=1 Enables Caller ID with formatted presentation to the DTE.
- The modem will present the data items in a <Tag><Value> pair format.
- The expected pairs are data, time, caller code (telephone number), and
- name.
-
- #CID=2 Enables Caller ID with unformatted presentation to the DTE.
- The modem will present the entire packet of information, excluding the
- leading U's, in ASCII printable hex numbers.
-
- Result Codes:
-
- OK n = 0 or 2.
- ERROR Otherwise.
-
- Inquiries
-
- #CID? Retrieves the current Caller ID mode from the modem.
-
- #CID=? Returns the mode capabilities of the modem in a list with
- each element separated by commas.
-
- Formatted Form Reporting
- The modem presents the data in the <tag> = <value> pair format as
- described in the table below. Spaces are present on both sides of the
- equal sign.
-
- Tag Description
-
- DATE DATE = MMDD where MM is the month number (01 to 12) and DD is the
- day number (01..31).
-
- TIME TIME = HHMM where HH is the hour number (00 to 23) and MM is the
- minute number (00 to 59).
-
- NMBR NMBR = <number> or P or O where <number> is the telephone number
- of the caller, where P indicates that the calling number information
- is not available since the originating caller has requested private
- service, and where O indicates that the calling number information is
- not available or out of service at the calling location.
-
- NAME NAME = <listing name> where <listing name> is the subscription
- name.
-
- MESG MESG = <data tag> <length of message> <data> <checksum> in
- printable ASCII hex numbers.
-
- This tag indicates a data item not listed above. The message is only
- possible for Multiple Message Format.
-
- Notes:
-
- 1. The modem does not present any Caller ID information if the DCE
- detects a checksum error in the Caller ID packet.
-
- 2. In the event of an unrecognized data tag, the modem will present
- the data in ASCII hex numbers following the MESG tag.
-
-
- Example of Formatted Form Reporting
- 1. The following example illustrates the standard Caller ID message
- packet.
-
- RING
-
- DATE = 0321
- TIME = 1405
- NMBR = 5045551234
- NAME = A N OTHER
-
- RING
-
- RING
-
- 2. The following example illustrates the case where the tag of the
- packet is not recognized by the modem.
-
- RING
-
- MESG = 060342424231
-
- RING
-
- RING
-
- Unformatted Form Reporting
- The modem presents all information and packet control information
- found in the message. The modem, however, excludes the leading U's
- (channel seizure information) from the presentation. The packet is
- presented in ASCII printable hex numbers, the modem does not insert
- spaces, or line feeds, for formatting between bytes or words of the
- packet.
-
- The modem does not detect the checksum of the packet.
