With the PF-6A, you will continue to receive your
calls, during phone system and power outages. The
PF-6A bypass unit connects 6 preassigned single
line station phones directly to the C.O. trunks you
have assigned. A built in ground start converter
permits outbound calls from standard phones.
When the system is restored, you will not lose calls.
Viking’s PF-6A bypass unit will reconnect phones to
their station circuits after they become idle.
The PF-6A can be configured to operate when power is lost or from an opening/closing
of an alarm contact or manual closure.
The PF-6A can also be used to convert six incoming ground start lines to loop start
lines. This accommodates installation of telephony equipment requiring loop start lines
(i.e: key systems, call sequencers, answering machines, voice mail, etc.).
by 24-48V DC PABX battery supply on
terminals 50 and 25.
POWER and ACTIVE LED - The POWER LED and the ACTIVE LED
will be lit when the PF-6A is in the normal operating mode. The
ACTIVE LED will go out and the POWER LED will stay lit when the test
button is pressed.

Important: This unit is not protected against damage from power line surges. A surge protector is recommended if
operated on 120V AC.
A. Power Fail Bypass Unit
It is recommended that the first six C.O. lines be interfaced with the
PF-6A as shown in the chart to the right.
If your system has an alarm contact or manual transfer switch, you
must connect it to the red and green wires of the modular jack labeled
EXTERNAL ALARM on the left side of the PF-6A. This must be a
normally open maintained contact closure. If normally closed alarm
contacts are used, wire them to break the power to the PF-6A when
they open.
Note: Loop start and ground start CO lines may be combined on the
PF-6A (see Programming). When ground start lines are used, pin 50
(V/S) must be connected to a good earth ground.

the ground start trunks as shown below.

Operation
A. Power Fail or System Fail Bypass
DIP Switches
After installation is complete, test the PF-6A by doing
one of the following:
1. Press and hold the TEST button
2. Move DIP switch 1 to the ON position
3. Disconnect power to the PF-6A
4. Provide a maintained normally open contact closure to the EXTERNAL ALARM input
Maintained
Normally Open
Contact Closure
After installing and testing the PF-6A, instruct office personnel that in the event of the power failure or system failure
that the six assigned telephones will be the only means to receive and place calls.
While the PF-6A is in normal operating mode, the six C.O. lines are connected to the trunk inputs and the six
assigned station circuits are connected to their six telephones.
In the event of either a power failure or a major PABX alarm, the PF-6A will shift into the bypass mode. In this
mode, the six C.O. trunks are instantly connected to the six analog telephones designated, bypassing the
PABX/KSU.
Incoming calls will now ring directly to the telephones assigned to the six C.O. trunks. Outgoing calls may also be
made from each telephone, even on ground start lines.
When power is restored or the major alarm is cleared, the PF-6A will automatically switch back to normal operation.
Any C.O. trunk in use at this time will remain connected until the call is completed.
B. Ground to Loop Start Converter
The PF-6A can also be used as a ground start to loop start converter. This accommodates the installation of
telephony equipment requiring loop start lines (ie; key systems, call sequencers, answering machines, voice mail
systems, etc.), to ground start C.O. trunks. See Installation for proper wiring in this application.
In this application, the PF-6A will not pass disconnect supervision (“hang up” signals) to the loop start equipment.
When a hang up occurs, the PF-6A’s ground start converter automatically “restarts” the line and dial tone is returned
to the loop start equipment. The loop start equipment will not detect any disconnect, as this “restart” occurs
immediately after the hang up. Typically this will cause the loop start equipment to not release the telephone line
when a caller abandons. Nothing can be done about this situation, as the PF-6A can not distinguish the difference
between this abandon condition and the loop start equipment going “off hook” to make an outgoing call.
Note: The PF-6A can ONLY be used to convert ground start lines to loop start. It can NOT convert loop start lines
to ground start.
