PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method (300) of starting a powerplant machine (110, 115, 120), such as, but not limiting of, a turbomachine (110, 115, 120) set to operate in a Fast Start mode. SOLUTION: The method of starting the powerplant machine by a starting system (125, 130, 135) includes steps of: determining whether a Fast Start of the powerplant machine is desired (320, 365); determining whether the starting system is ready for operating in a Fast Start mode; selecting a pre-connect mode of the starting system (125, 130, 135); determining whether a starting system operational sequence is complete; and determining whether the starting system is in the pre-connect mode (350, 355, 360, 363); wherein the Fast Start mode prepares the starting system for operation before a request to start the powerplant machine is received, reducing an overall start-up time of the powerplant machine.
