SPA525G with UC540 - caller id and called-name - phone display help needed

Hi, I have a UC540 with 18 SPA525G2 phones (4 deployed using VPN).

The phone call quality is great, even between Australia and Thailand.

Our first issue is that the display on the phones doesn't show the  callers name (when the caller is saved in the company directory or in  the phones directory). It only shows the callers phone number twice. I  can't find any way to get it to display the callers name if the callers  number is in our directory. Please help me with this if you can.

Our second issue is that we have multiple departments with multiple  incoming phone numbers coming into the system. Some of our phones  receive calls from multiple departments (multiple incoming numbers). In  order to answer the phone appropriately we need to see which of our  phone numbers (or corresponding department name) is being called. Cisco  advertised this feature with the UC500 series and it is called  "called-name". I have looked but cant find anyway to turn this on for  our phones. Can someone please help me with this?

As you could imagine, without these two advertised features working  on our system, we are having difficulty answering the phones the way we  would like.

I would appreciate any help you can offer.

Michael
