I have an NEC 2000 IPS phone system that we have installed in the last year. We recently decided to add some Caller-ID capabilites to our phone lines. We can't quite get the phones to co-operate now. We have gon through our certified reseller and now some work some don't but we do not want to keep having to pay for his "expertise". We also have some people setup to login on ACD groups so they have what we are calling ACD phones - basically the difference seems to be the second line displays VACANT rather than the date and time.
Anyway this is sort of a multi-part question:
1. Does it have to display VACANT or can it display the date and time and still remain an ACD phone.
2. When a call comes in the first line displays DDD and then some 4 digit number. For the phones where caller-id is kind of working the second line will change from the date and time to the number calling(unformatted) and then we have re-assigned the recall button to change to the name display. Can the first line not display something useful like the name or the number and the 2nd line display the other?
3. This also seems to apply to voicemail. At the beginning of each VM the lady says call from 010 or some such number... Seems like she could also say something useful.
Thanks for any help in advance. I am pulling my hair out trying to read and understand all the NEC manuals.
