Narrative:
Preflight/taxi checks all ok. Began takeoff roll on runway 28. Power set, accelerating through 90 KTS got a warning chime and aural warning, 'automatic feather.' takeoff was aborted. Taxied off and verified all switch positions in proper place. Turned automatic feather off, then back on, and went through the automatic feather checks. Checked ok. Taxied back to 28 and departed west/O incident. Should have taxied back to ramp and had maintenance check system before attempting second departure.
