How to program an internal extension number and then give it a name by using alphabet how to change a name tag on an existing internal extension number

The extension name and extension number are set in the system programming. Use manager 'e' and change them in the station view. If you are swapping people around and want them to keep their extension numbers and names, you should re-patch the cables feeding to the wall sockets rather than change the programming (if you can).

What are you using to program.

PT Programming or you are using a PC Tool?

Did you save after setting names?

If you have installed it on a new extension, it already has a number. By default, on a TA-series system, the jack and extension are the same, so Jack 12 is extension 112. Quickest way is to plug the phone in and dial 0. The main phone rings and the display will give you the extension number.

To program the buttons, press PROGRAM the button and dial 1 plus the extension number. The lines should already be programmed by default, but they are 0 plus 01, 02, 03 etc. Press STORE after each button you program.

If you want to program ringing and line access differently than it already is, you need to look in the Programming Manual for the specific phone system. The Panasonic cabinet is going to be white with a silver tag or a model number stenciled or embossed on the case. Something like TA-824 or TA-624 would probably be your system model.

Name changes are done from the System Administrators phone. In the TA-series, it's system program 604. In a TAW it's 004. I can give you complete instructions, but you have to get to that screen first.

If you get there and want to play, the SP Phone FWD CONF MUTE and keypad press up to 7 times enter the Alphabet names (space is under 1). Nothing writes until you press STORE.

Correct. Changes are done in system programming. In a TDA it resides in system program 004. You get there by going to the main phone or phone used to program, dial PROG **1234 004 and enter the extension number of the name you want to change. It will display the present name and let you use the keypad to spell out new names. For example 2 gives you ABCabc2. The right arrow steps to the next character and ENTER saves it.

If you are using the KX-T7730 phone on a Panasonic KX-Txx 308 or 824 system. From the Switchboard / Main telephone ( usually ext 101, 10 or 9 ) with the handset on the cradle press PROGRAM * # followed by the system password ( default is 1234). Now press 604 and then SP-PHONE. Enter the jack number you wish to change ( 01 is extension 101, 02 is extension 102 etc. ). Enter the name ( basically the same as texting on a cellphone ). Press AUTO DIAL / STORE to save your change. To go to the next extension press SP-PHONE. Don’t forget to press AUTO DIAL / STORE to save your change after each name entered. Press PROGRAM to exit program mode and you are done.
