An electronic key telephone set in an electronic key telephone system which is connected to the office line during the power failure by a power failure detecting relay in the key service unit having a common selection signal sender is provided with a circuit for detecting power failure to the key telephone system, additional contacts to respective keys of the key dial and a selection signal generator coupled with the additional contacts. The selection signal generator is connected to the voice signal pair line by a transistor which is turned on by a signal from the power failure detecting circuit during the power failure, and receives a D.C. power on the office line to be operable, so that a call may be generated from the key telephone set even during the power failure to the key telephone system. The signal from the power failure detecting circuit is fed to the transistor through a photo-coupler element.
In an electronic key telephone system including a plurality of key telephone sets each having key dial means and data signal transmitter/receiver circuit means and connected to a key service unit through a voice signal pair line and a data signal pair line, and said key service unit which has a switching matrix comprising a plurality of relay means for selectively connecting said key telephone sets to one or more office lines, additional relay means for detecting commercial power failure to said sets and connecting each office line to a respective predetermined one of said key telephone sets through break contacts thereof, and means for sending a selection signal in response to a data signal from each one of said key telephone sets, the improvement which comprises said respective predetermined one of said key telephone sets comprising two contacts provided for each key in said key dial with one of said two contacts connected to said data transmitter/receiver circuit means, means coupled with the other contact of each key and generating a selection signal, means for detecting power failure, and means for connecting said selection signal generating means to said voice signal pair line during the power failure.
An electronic key telephone set in an electronic key telephone system having a key service unit, which comprises:
