The code looks like it's intended to only cause a log message if the state of sticky faults changes in some way.
getStickyFaults() retuns a new java object each time, so using == for comparison on the object will always return true.
This change looks at the rawBits of the fault object instead.
old behavior = log message once a second even if there are no sticky faults
new behavior = log message only when the bits actually change
It might arguably be better to log once a second but only when there are faults so that the presence of faults is easier to see in a busy log file (but this doesn't do that). If the code is changed in that way, this class could have a lot of code removed.
