What is indicated by a No Display condition in ALI data?

• A. The ALI displays normally on all screens.
• B. Trouble encountered with the ALI displayed data where the cursor appears on a blank screen and no ALI data, or any other data, is displayed.
• C. The system displays an 'ALI not available' banner on the screen.
• D. The ALI data is shown but with incorrect address.

Answer: (B)

No Display means the ALI data does not appear at all on the screen. You’ll see a blank screen with the cursor, and no ALI data—or any other data—is shown. This indicates a problem with displaying ALI data rather than the data simply being unavailable or incorrect. Context helps: ALI (Automatic Location Information) is the location/address data that should appear to assist responders. When it fails to display, the telecommunicator is unable to read the caller’s location from the screen, which is a separate issue from ALI data not being available (which would show a banner) or from showing an incorrect address (which would still display something, just wrong). In a No Display situation, the data path or the display system is not presenting any ALI information at all.
