[cisco-voip] Issue with 7945 phones and Display Name

[Ryan Ratliff]

Last I heard of this was that H.323 doesn't support unicode so all H. 
323 trunks/devices will use ASCII device name.

There is speculation and one unconfirmed situation, where the ASCII

my company name, and that is the name that is sent out the trunks.

Can anyone confirm that when the Call Display field and ASCII field  
are different, that the Call Display is sent to another IP phone?

I sometimes don’t fill out the ASCII field.   Why they choose ASCII  
over Unicode  I’m not sure, ascii can display names in other  
characters like 摊开晒(刚割下的草等),翻晒 (Chinese) or  
ворошить сено (Russian).


The translation is from Google, was supposed to be the name Ted.   
Probably translated to something way off……need a babelfish 7945G.

For some reason I thought the ASCII Display Name was only needed for  
SIP-based phones.

ASCII Display Name must be part of your bat file.  Even though it  
auto populates when adding a phone manually,  it does NOT do this  
when adding phones via BAT.


ASCII Display Name is the name that shows up when a users phone is  
ringing.  If not populated, only the phone number will appear.

Hello,


I have 7945 phones deployed with CallManager 5.1(3). When the phones  
were imported, the Display Name was set on the lines but the ASCII  
Display Name was not. When these phones call phones at another  
location, only the extension shows up for caller ID. The Display Name  
does not show up. If the ASCII Display Name is populated, then the  
Display Name shows up properly. Any thoughts on why this is the case?


Thanks,


James Buchanan
