Thanks for your reply. The ROM version of my system is P421N01023B. I have no idea what the "dash" version is.
Unfortunately I don't have a butt set available, but I think I'll go and get a cheap caller ID box to test it. I am not using voicemail on the system. All of the phones I am using are the KX-T7433 display phones, and all are set to ring on incoming calls.

You did not mention the version of system. You will NOT get caller ID on analog stations without a special card to do that. The best way to check your caller ID is to put a butt set across the line in monitor and call the line. Between the first and second ring, you will hear a burst of data. Another reason it may not work is phone cable makeup. Try a stand alone CALLER ID box and see if it works. If you have a Voicemail on the system, using the attendant, you will either have to delay the number of rings by 2 for the VM to pick up to give the system a chance to transfer the CALLER ID, OR in later VM uits, there is an option in the utilities menu to adjust. Caller ID in my experience, will only display on a ringing phone at least on the older systems. You must have a 7431 or higher I believe in order for the display to work. This is state side. Hope it helps you out.

Currently, the system is being used with analogue lines, as I do not have an ISDN service available. Can someone please explain, first of all, if it is even possible to use caller ID on an analogue line with this system? I want the caller ID to come up on the proprietary telephones of the system, don't care about analogue phones as I don't use any. Every time I ring up my dealer I get a different answer to these questions. I actually rang up the phone company and got them to add caller ID to the service, and it didn't work, so I'm guessing that I need the KX-TD193 card? Or is this card only for analogue extensions and not analogue lines? If so, is there another card that will do the job? Thanks for any assistance.
