1. ENG IGN OFF Light - amber
Illuminates amber when no ignition system has been selected and no power
is being supplied to the ignitors.
2. OVRD ON Switch - amber
Push switch to select ignition override. Direct power to both ignitors on each
engine is provided for in-flight use. Normal ignition control is bypassed.
Illuminates amber when ignition override is selected on.
3. ENG IGN Switch (A & B) - white/blue
Selecting ignition with these switches will signal the aircraft system
controllers (MSC, ESC, FSC) that the engines are about to be started. The
aircraft system controllers will then configure the interfacing aircraft systems
for engine start.
Once an ignition selection has been made (A, B, or both A and B), the
selection will remain until engine shutdown.
A or B illuminates white when the respective ignition system has been
selected with the switch. When A or B is illuminated, the APU N1 will
increase to about 100 percent rpm to provide greater pneumatic capability for
starting.
