What is CNIP (Caller Name Identification)?
As with the CLI service this new feature is dependent on the Network and it has to be activated by your
Operator (by subscription). It will allow you to have the name of the caller displayed upon an incoming
call.This service may not be available from all Operators yet.We advise you to check with your Operator.
NB. If the name of the caller is registered in your phonebook upon an incoming call it will be the name
you have
registered which will be displayed and not the one provided by the Operator.The data in your
phonebook will have priority over the Operator's data in this particular case.
The CNIP uses the same technology as for the CLI.Therefore the limits of this service are identical
(please refer to the questions related to CLI if the service is not working properly). Remember that it
only works with alphanumeric display.
How many telephones can I have ?
All items of telephone equipment have Ringer Equivalence Number (REN), which is used to calculate the
number of items which may be connected to any one telephone line.
Your DECT 311 has a REN of 1.
A total REN of 4 is allowed, if the total REN of 4 is exceeded, the telephones may not ring.
With different telephone types there is no guarantee of ringing, even when the REN is less than 4.
Which are the conditions required to be able to send an SMS ?
You must first have a subscription to Caller Display (CLI) service from your network operator as well as
an SMS service subscription from the appropriate provider.
Is it possible to write, read send or receive an SMS when the other handset is in
communication (DECT 3112 only)?
No it is not possible.
What happens if I send an SMS to a fixed line with no SMS phone ?
The correspondent could receive a vocal message (SMS provider dependent).
Is it possible to send an SMS to a fixed line in another country ?
This feature depends on your provider. Please contact your provider for more details.
How can I get the SMS centre number ?
One SMS centre number at least is pre-programed in your DECT 311. However, should you need to
store another number, other numbers can be set into the phone from the menu SMS/SMS
Settings/SMS centre. Please check the incoming and outgoing centre numbers with the SMS provider
or from the enclosed addendum to your phone user manual.
What is the destination box useful for ?
This is the number of a personal SMS box. It is a way to send an SMS to someone?s personal box instead
of sending it to the default box, which is a kind of common box. If you send an SMS without specifying an
SMS box number (destination box), then the SMS will be sent to the default box if the receiver?s phone
deals with multiboxes features (provider dependent).
When using my SMS-enabled Philips phone with another SMS-enabled phone on the same
line, can it cause any problems ?
Yes, this will prevent the phones from receiving SMS.You need to deactivate the SMS feature on one of
the phones.Your DECT 311 has a feature which enables you to turn the SMS feature off. Go to menu
SMS/SMS Settings/Mode/OFF
