Which outcome results when the PLC's watchdog timer unexpectedly triggers in a paper mill's stock preparation system?

💡 Explanation

The slurry pump stops because the *watchdog timer* detects a PLC malfunction; therefore, the controller resets the system to a safe state by halting the pump, rather than continuing operation with potentially corrupted output values which would damage the mixing process.
