Adding/Changing Name to NEC multi-line phone

I am unable to change the name that is displayed on the screen of our office phones. they are NEC electra elite phones. (that is what the guide calls them) I have the character entry codes, but no where in the booklets does it say anything about what to press to change the name displayed on the screen. (the question about changing the time and date of the last phone had the answer that my book had so it was the same phone I assume.) Thank you so much for any help you can give me!

On an NEC Elite you must enter system programming to change the name of the extensions. Unless you have a PC connection to the system this is somewhat complicated. If you would like me to step you through the system programming, please contact me @ 850-326-0394.

NEC Dterm80; How do I display Caller ID on incoming calls?

https://www.fixya.com/support/t12972336-set_up_caller_id_nec_dterm80_phone

This is a technical problem beyond the basic programming functions of the phone such as you would find in a user's manual. It requires support from a phone technician. For example: https://sundance-communications.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/246760/dterm-80-caller-id-programming I don't think online advice will be of assistance. There is barely the possibility that Startech.com could be of service. Otherwise, your technician supporting your phone service will have to assist.

How to Change Display Name

There is no option for it on your extension because your "class of service" is not set for it. Probably the only extension set for name change is 301 if the default configuration was not changed.

I am trying to change the name displayed on my nec i-series phone. How do i do this?

Assuming you are not an NEC trained Tech and your system is on a IPKII, You will best served by acquiring the IPKII Instalation manual and the Feature and services Manual.
This is not the kind of simple change that the average end user should attempt although I would agree that it is a feature that should have been made availiable to the average user because of occasional movement in
any office environment.
