Overview
The ignition system supplies electrical power to start or continue the combustion of the fuel and air mixture in the combustor. The electronic control units (ECUs) transmit electrical power to energize the ignition system channels.
The ignition system can operate in continuous or automatic ignition mode. In the continuous ignition mode, the two ignition system channels are energized at the same time. In the automatic ignition mode, the two channels are energized one after the other.
