The message button on a Samsung Prostar 816 won't stop blinking, how do I stop it?

Once you start using the Conference key on the Prostar 816 you will find it really easy to use, and very helpful! I have uploaded a training video for you to watch, other prostar 816 clips are available on Youtube searching for abbeytel. Visit www.abbeytelcom.com for written copies.

It's not called a Prostar in the UK but is known as the Samsung DCS 816. The follow clip will show you how to add to the system speed dial directory. But you can find 60+ handy clips at www.AbbeyTelecom.com

This sounds like the extension has not been put into the ring group, as it is the pick-up key which is flashing on your prostar 816. you need to enter customer level programming and find out in MMC 714 which group is set up to ring and the go to MMC 601 and add the extention to the correct group under the members section. I know this sounds complicated but I have posted a video of which there are more to help you with the prostar 816 on YouTube search abbeytel, Or visit www.abbeytelcom.com.

This handset would only be able to do message answering if Voice Mail is installed on the whole system, visit www.abbeytelecom.com to find out more, this uploaded video explains the basic fintions of Voice Mail

To change the ringing on a prostar 816 you first need to be at a display set (doesn't matter what the extension number is).
with the handset down enter #20 the screen should say MMC DISABLED
1) enter in 1 2 3 4 1 # (that enables programming)
2) enter in #62 the screen should say day ring assn
3) press the line button for the fax line
4) press the button for the extensions that you wish to ring (the ones in the right next to the handset)
5) press # when finished with the line

for this problem and more view the attatched Video and there are plenty more helpful training tutorials on YouTube- search 'abbeytel' or visit www.abbeytelecom.com, I really hopes that this helps

The blinking light on the speaker button means the forward when busy is on. To cancel it- With the handset on-hook dial #12.
Then press your own station number. Then dial # again. The speaker button should stop flickering.
Note: If the SPK button continues to flicker, Forward all is activated. It is the same process as above but use #11 instead of #12

The Prostar 816 phone system can only use Prostar 816 phones. There is a rare larger Prostar system that can use other Prostar phones along with the 816 but typically was only installed in situations where more than 16 phones were needed. If you are looking at non-prostar phones like the Samsung DCS 12 then they certainly will not work.

You can stop the recall function on any indidual call by double pressing the hold key to invoke exclusive hold. Watch this clip or see many more at www.AbbeyTelecom.com
