Set the Samsung DCS in day & Night Mode.

CTCSS is a subaudio (<300Hz) tone that is broadcast when you transmit on a radio. If another radio is set to receive that tone, then the squelch will open and he will hear your transmission. Having said that, any other radio that does not have CTCSS set at all will also hear your transmission, so all it does is for the receiver to hear less of others talking. DCS is the same except that CTCSS sends out a continuous tone, DCS sends out a string of tones. This allows more "channels" to be allocated, but still ,everyone is using the same frequency

see:
CTCSS DCS

The FTM-10E is the european version of the dual band amateur radio capable of transmitting in the amateur VHF & UHF (144Mhz & 440Mhz ) bands, that is equal to the FTM-10R sold in the US.

Many repeaters require a predetermined sub-audible tone or signal to be sent when transmitting. If several repeaters in the area operate on the same frequency, they would all transmit at the same time unless they all have different sub-audible tones. These tones allow the user to select which repeater on the same frequency will be used. The tones are either CTCSS or DCS type. CTCSS is "continuous tone coded squelch system" and DCS is "digital coded squelch". CTCSS is expressed as a frequency in Hertz and DCS is a code expressed as a number. CTCSS is more popular, since it has been around longer. When programming or tuning the radio, you will need to provide the repeater's output frequency (and the input frequency if the shift direction and amount isn't programmed - often a 600 hertz shift either up or down depending on isn't already programmed is a default value depending on the repeater output frequency) and whether or not the repeater requires a tone. If it does require a tone (most do), you will need to know the type (CTCSS or DCS) and the value (frequency for CTCSS or code number for DCS) in order for your transmitter to open the repeater and cause it to repeat your transmission AND open the squelch on the radio's receiver so that you can hear replies to your call and other conversations. Repeater directories (both printed and online) will provide all the information needed to access a public repeater, including geographical location, input & output frequencies, squelch type and values to name a few.

If you do not have the correct CTCSS or DCS set, you will see the signal meter on the radio indicate traffic - but you will not hear anything because the radio is squelched. Check the manual page 40 for information on how to program the squelch, and page 42 describes the "shift" I mentioned above. Page 64 & 65 details the theory of squelch via CTCSS and DCS and will help you understand it better.

Basically, you have a "standard" squelch - the knob on the radio and a second squelch that is either CTCSS or DCS. Both types must be set to hear anything. Not having the CTCSS or DCS set will prevent your signal from being repeated by the repeater.

If you have more question, please add them in a comment. I hope this helps & good luck!

Hi, the prompts on the Samsung DCS Voice Mail ask you to press 2 when you have recorded your message, this actually deletes the message, you have to press the # key to save. I have posted you a video with training tips on the DCS voice mail, others like this 1 are on Youtube by 'abbeytel'. a text version is on

Hi, I hope that you have already sorted your DCS problem out, if not then on the handset with Night mode on, with the handset in its cradle dial Transfer 107 then use your volume keys to find out which button has MODE on it. when you have sorted this press the mode button then dial 0000 then choose 1 for DAY. The video link which I have posted will hopefully help, others like this are on YouTube from abbeytel, or by visiting www.abbeytelecom.com.

Hi you need to forward your calls from the handset to the phone at the gate, dial 601 followed by the extension of the phone at the gate, I have sent you 1 of over 60 videos helping with issues relating to the Samsung Prostar from www.abbeytelecom.com

Please follow the steps :-
1) Press transfer.
2) Dial 800.
3) Enter passcode = (try 4321 or 1234)
4) Press 1.
5) Press the speaker button.
6) Dial 505.
7) The display will show.
WMMDDYY:00:00
w=day of the week (1=Mon. - 7=Sun.)
mm=2 digit month
dd= 2 digit day
yy=2 digit year
time must be entered in military time when done press Transfer.
I hope I was able to help you.

This is how to set the alarms on Samsung telephone systems. There are more phone system programmimg tips at www.AbbeyTelecom.com

I have the manual for the DCS series and there is no help regarding this.
It does say how to turn from auto to manual and make sure that the time is correct.
1. If the manual NIGHT key is pressed BEFORE the system automatically enters night service then the automatic night service timer tables will be overriden until the system is manually restored to day mode.
2. If AFTER the system automatically enters the night service tables and will not be overriden.

Which system do you have ? Most can be programmed to turn the nite mode on and off automatically based on time of day. Repost a little more info and I can help. ....Mike

Depends on your vmail system and telephone system. If you have a cadence vmail or svmi-8, you must go into system programming on your telephone system and program the key on the phone.
