TELECOM THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW Your DCS Keyphone System There are a number of different Samsung keyphone systems each designated with the prefix ‘DCS.’ The original system is called simply the ‘DCS.’ Other systems are designated DCS Compact II, DCS- 816, DCS408 and DCS-408i. For simplicity, this guide uses the designations ‘DCS,’ ‘Compact II,’ ‘816,’ ‘408’ and ‘408i’ when referring to individual systems.
TELECOM Call Indications The keys on your phone have light emitting diodes (LEDs). Some of these are tri-coloured LEDs that light green, red or amber (green andred together). Some of the keys can only light red. See the relevant keyset layout diagram (below) for a description of the keyset you are using. Internal calls, also called intercom calls, always appear on your CALL keys and always light green. You can have up to eight CALL keys (or up to five on Compact II systems), but two are recommended.

Ringback Tone—indicates the extension you dialled is ringing Busy Tone—indicates the extension you dialled is busy.
TELECOM Be aware that the menus presented to you will change depending on the state of your keyphone. In idle state, you see the menus above.
