Technical Practice
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.).
Features
• Transfers six C.O. trunks directly to the
designated analog station phones
• Stackable to increase capacity
• Allows you to receive calls as well as make
calls during power or system failure
• Compatible with loop start lines or 48V ground
start lines
• Automatic ground start converter eliminates
"ground start buttons"
• Power restoration will not interrupt calls in
progress
• Operates on power failure or normally open -
normally closed alarm contacts

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.
Applications
• Prevents busy signals or unanswered calls
during power and system failures
• Converts ground start lines to standard loop
start lines

Summary of Contents for Viking PF-6A

  • Page 1 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.).
  • Page 2 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.
  • Page 3 B. Ground to Loop Start Converter The ground start converter in the PF-6A will only work properly when connected in series with the ground start trunks as shown below. Incoming C.O. Ground Start Lines Trunks Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring...
  • Page 4 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.
