STARTER SWITCH

The STARTER switch is a three-position toggle-type switch, labeled
STARTER, on the left sidewall switch and circuit breaker panel. The
switch has OFF, START, and MOTOR positions. For additional details
of the STARTER switch, refer to the starting system paragraph in this
section.

IGNITION SWITCH

The IGNITION switch is a two-position toggle-type switch, labeled
IGNITION, on the left sidewall switch and circuit breaker panel. The
switch has ON and NORMAL positions. For additional details of the
IGNITION switch, refer to the ignition system paragraph in this section.

GENERATOR SWITCH

The GENERATOR switch is a three-position toggle-type switch, labeled
GENERATOR, on the left sidewall switch and circuit breaker panel. The
switch has ON, RESET, and TRIP positions. With the switch in the ON
position, the GCU will automatically control the generator line contactor
for normal generator operation. The RESET and TRIP positions are
momentary positions and are spring-loaded to the ON position. If a
momentary fault should occur in the generating system (as evidenced
by the amber GENERATOR OFF annunciator, red VOLTAGE LOW
annunciator and/or red VOLTAGE HIGH annunciator), the
GENERATOR switch can be momentarily placed in the RESET position
to restore generator power. If erratic operation of the generating system
is observed, the system can be shutoff by momentarily placing the
GENERATOR switch to the TRIP position. After a suitable waiting
period, generator operation may be recycled by placing the
GENERATOR switch momentarily to RESET.
