Naming A Telephone Or A Line; Moving Telephones - Nortel ICS 7.1 Coordinator Manual

Naming a telephone or a line

You can assign names to identify external lines, target lines,
and each telephone. 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 32.
Telephone names and line names can contain both letters and
numbers, but cannot be longer than seven characters. You
cannot use the # and * symbols.
Tip -
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.

Moving telephones

You may be required by law to report any telephone moves
to your local telecommunications carrier or 911 service
provider. For further details, consult your local carrier, your
local 911 service provider, and/or your local
telecommunications service provider.
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. If you want to replace
a telephone and cancel the programming, ensure that the
relocation setting is off.
