How do I display the second incoming caller ID while on an active call? I tried programming a caller ID inspect and also using the down arrow, but no luck.

Using 8.1, with 1416 telephones.

 
there was a thread not too long ago where Touch Tone Tommy posted the way to go through the programming menu and enable it permanently but I can't of course find it right now.
however that means you could try and see if you can find it in the menu of the phone, it might not work because basic mode is a castrated version of a phone system and I have never installed one so I could not even try it on a system I have access to, but it is worth a shot. Actually found it in the manual because I was nosy
