A watchdog continuously monitors the health of the controller and the correct operation of the APV. If it detects a malfunction in either the controller or APV, it puts the whole system into safe mode which means that P2 is maintained at a safe predetermined pressure. The controller also sends out an alarm so that the fault can be investigated.
