Abstract
A method for handling a simultaneous failure of all channels of a multi-channel engine controller configured to control operation of a gas turbine engine is provided. The method includes obtaining, by a first processor associated with a first channel of the engine controller, data indicative of the simultaneous failure of all channels of the engine controller. The method further includes providing, by the first processor, one or more control signals associated with resetting at least a second processor associated with a second channel of the multi-channel engine controller based, at least in part, on the data. Furthermore, the method includes controlling, by the first processor, operation of the gas turbine engine while at least the second processor is resetting.
