Abstract
A control for a brushless generator is operable in a starting mode of operation to convert electrical power into motive power for starting a prime mover. The control applies AC power to an exciter field winding at a first frequency at the initiation of a start sequence and thereafter decreases the frequency of the power applied to the exciter field winding during the start sequence.
