Engine Cranking is set to continue for 90 seconds.

Operation and Maintenance:

If the engine do not start at the 90 second racking, the

controller locks of the cracking and send a pump fail to
start signal to F&G system.

Manual start then can be perform which will initiate an

another 90 seconds crank cycle, and can be repeated until
the engine starts or the starting air and the back up
nitrogen is fully exhausted.
