Do you mean CSID which shows the number of the person calling? If so all phone companies normally provide it as a matter of course. I have a K115B with the same modem. I imagine CSID services should work fine with the modem.

It should work automatically without you having to get an adaptor in most cases.

Are you using Fax software? If the number of the person who has sent you a fax appears then CSID is enabled. If it doesnt then you could always look in the help files to see how to enable it.

Sorry to hear that.

CXT AC-Link for Ali modems are listed as being Fax capable, and support CAS Class 1 at least and conform to the 1995/5/EC specifications so the system should support this service anyway.
CSID should work with your system.

Are you shure it will work with the ETSI-FSK standard ( i even dont know what it means and whats that)?
Coz i have to pay taxes to activate my callerID and they told me that the modem should be for this system ETSI-FSK.

Thank you

Sounds like its a normal standard - and Sony usually follow standards.

I cannot be 100% sure, but I will try to find concrete evidence of this ASAP...

Connexant the manufacturer of the modem state that it has full comformance with UK directives, so theoretically ETSI-FSK should be supported...

Connexant: V.92 Soft Modems (PCI/USB/AC-LINK)

I will try to get further information from their website...
