     Self-diagnosis. RCS-9698G/H can monitor its software and hardware during ope ration. Alarm signals will be issued if any software and hardware errors occur. At the same time, RCS-9698G/H will lock itself to avoid unwanted operation. When errors occur in the master side of RCS-9698H, besides the master side locks itself, the slave side can run in master mode automatically, and then issue signals to ensure the stability and the reliability.
