Abstract
The invention concerns a method for identifying the call of a subscriber calling, via a telecommunication network, a destination telecommunication device, in particular, a destination terminal of a called subscriber, a destination program module for it, a destination telecommunication device for it, a network device program module for it, a network device for it, a source program module for it and a source telecommunication device for it. According to the method, upon setup of a call connection, identification data for identification of the caller is transmitted to the destination telecommunication device. The destination telecommunication device outputs the identification data. It is proposed that the destination telecommunication device receives the identification data within a call setup signalling message and that the destination telecommunication device outputs the identification data, or output data generated from it, as acoustic and/or visual and/or mechanical call signals instead of an acoustic ringer tone selected by the destination telecommunication device.
