How do I remove a DES from a 3904 phone ? I can over write it but how do I blank it out ?

if the des says ABCDE you type xABCDE at the des prompt when changing the set

Doing an easy change and when I put an x in front of the existing letters all it does is add the x to the entry..

Buddy if you make the change you just outlined in your switch it works? I have never seen a switch do that.

t3 I think you have to put something there. Why leave it blank?

so my last statement is nul, but the sch code is stupid when trying to leave it blank on a new set, as it references NEW, seems it should read required field, unless there is some way to nul it.

I just don't see how x would work. What if you wanted the des to be xray?

I have just checked on an 81C rel 3 and an Opt 11C rel 5, in both cases you cannot remove the DES you have to change it to another value. Even trying to put in a space in place of actual writing does not work.

You always have to place something in the Descriptor, why would you want to leave it blank. I use mine for room and cubicle numbers

The DES is a mandatory field. It cant be blank. Maybe you can trick it with a space, but there needs to be something in there.

I usually provide info at DES area as identifier. It also help you filter in printing sets in LD 81. Its very usefull for me..

You need a DES. It's bailed me out more times than I can remember. That and CPND's - hate sites that don't use them (their policies so someone doesn't let a call from a co-worker they hate roll to voicemail, whatever...)... but at least I'll know that a DES of 2345FX = fax machine on DN 2345, DES 3456MD = modem on DN 3456, etc...
