Marine One start up

I have noticed that when POTUS talks to reporters, or walks to the machine, the turbines often sound like they're running, but the blades are not yet turning.
Does the VH-3D have a ground idle setting which is used at this point - once he's on board then flight idle selected and blades begin to turn?
