Telephone features
Naming a telephone or a line
You can assign names to identify external lines, target lines, and
your co-workers' telephones. During a call, the name (if
programmed) is shown on the telephone display instead of the
external line number or internal telephone number of the caller.
Step-by-step instructions for adding or changing the name of a
telephone or a line are in “Changing the name of a telephone” on
page 18.
Telephone names and line names can contain both letters and
numbers, but cannot be longer than seven characters. You cannot
use the # and * symbols.
Moving telephones
If automatic telephone relocation is enabled in programming by your
installer or customer service representative, you can move your
telephone from one Norstar jack to another without losing any of its
custom programming.
Tip - You can give the same name to two or more
telephones, or to a telephone and a line in your
system. To avoid confusion, avoid such
duplication. Use initials, abbreviations, or even
nicknames to give each telephone a unique name.
If automatic telephone relocation is turned on, the
name and internal number of a telephone are
saved if the telephone is moved within your
system.
