You can assign names to identify external lines, target lines, and your colleagues’ telephones. 
During a call, the name (if programmed) appears on the telephone display instead of the external 
line number or internal telephone number of the caller. You need to start a Unified Manager 
session to program this feature. For more information about programming using Unified Manager, 
see the Business Communications Manager Programming Operations Guide.

Telephone names and line names can contain both letters and numbers, but cannot be longer than 
seven characters. You cannot use the # and * symbols.

Each telephone in the system has an extension number. The length of extension numbers in your 
system can range from two to seven digits. All numbers in your system are the same length. Your 
installer assigns the length of extension numbers, called the extension length. The default 
extension length is three.

To find out your internal number, use the Button Inquiry feature (

≤•‚) from an intercom 

button. On the T7100 telephone, Button Inquiry shows your internal number followed by the 
function assigned to the memory button.

You can give the same name to a telephone and a line in your system. Use 

initials, abbreviations, or even nicknames to give each telephone a unique name to 
avoid confusion.
