The (one) Engine Fail ABN says: Selection of continuous ignition confirms the immediate relight attempt made by the FADEC.

It also says: IF NO ENG RELIGHT AFTER 30 S: (The 30 s countdown starts as soon as the ENG 1(2) FAIL alert is triggered) ENG MASTER (AFFECTED ENGINE)..................................................... ....................... OFF

The IGN then remains on for the remaining live engine.

Apparently, people who understand how the machine works inside, believe such confirmation within the first 30 seconds is not the critical item: establishing a source of electrical power is. Even as a confirmation of the automatic transfer.

Whoever feels lucky feel free to check if the IGN sw works in dual GEN FAIL situation at all...
