Changing name in nortel T7316E handset

You can't change that I believe. You can however check the user manual or call Avaya support http://www.pdfkeep.com/nortel-t7316e-manual

Hi Amy, you can change the name for an extension, but it will change the name for the extension for all the phones.

It is best to do programming on a T7316, M7310, or an M7324

1. Feature **23646
2. Password: 266344
>>>your password may have been changed by your phone company. contact them for the password.
3. Scroll to General Admin
4. Go to Names
5. Select Set Names
6. Enter in the DN of the extension you would like to change
7. Use the dial pad to change the extension.
8. Press Rls when finished (handset with arrow facing down)

Programming is done on 7310, 7324 and 7316 type sets.
Enter programming by pressing the feature key followed by **266344 (with the handset in its cradle).When prompted to enter the password enter 266344.
The screen should say TERMINALS&SETS. The 4 top line/feature keys are now used for programming.
At the terminals&sets prompt, press the show key (top right arrow).
The display should now ask for an extension number.
Enter extension number you want to change the name on. (i.e 202)
Then press the show key (top right arrow)

The display should say CAPABILITIES.

use the dial pad to enter the name. advance using the arrow soft key to go to the next letter
ex. Winston = 9 -> 4,4,4 -> 6,6 -> 7,7,7,7-> 8-> 6,6,6-> 6,6
Press the next key (bottom right arrow) to enter the name.
Press the release key when finished

The administrator or tech needs to do this from Administration programming (FXXXDMIN), see your office admin or call the tech in for admin training.
Password required as well which the vendor/tech can help with.

If you know password and how to do programming then looks under Sets/***/NAME

If they can hear you on your speaker but not the handset, the handset is bad. If they can't hear you either way, most likely the phone is bad. Try changing it with one that works, if the trouble follows the phone you have a bad phone. If the problem happens with the phone that did work you have a problem with your extension port in the phone system.

The A10 direct connect cord used on the Nortel T7316E primarily will increase the speaker volume. If the problem is that your microphone is too low, you will need to use an amplifier, the M22. Remember that the amplifier needs to be connected through the HANDSET jack not the headset jack. Here is the link for the Plantronics M22.

Good luck from Headsets Direct!

Try swapping the handset and cord with a working phone. Those handsets are known to loose the transmitters. As for the ringing, have someone make an intercom call to your extenxsion. Do not answer the call...while the light is flashing press the volume up button several times. www.dyna-tech.us
Hope this helps

Well ~ eagleeigh731 has it mostly correct, do what he said to do and get into the programming --> find SYSTEM PRGRAMMING --> hit next until you find CHANGE DNs--> OLD DNs (this is the old extn#) 222 then type in NEW DN 431--> then hit the end or release button.
Voila your new extension is now there... to check dial FEATURE 0 then press the intercom button, the new extension should be there.
