1.8.4 Watchdog timer configuration (JP7)
An on-board watchdog timer reduces the chance of disruptions which
EMP (electro-magnetic pulse) interference can cause. This is an
invaluable protective device for standalone or unmanned applications.
Setup involves two jumpers and running the control software. (Refer to
Appendix A.)
1.8.5 Watchdog timer action (JP7)
When the watchdog timer activates (CPU processing has come to a
halt), it can reset the system or generate an interrupt on IRQ11. This
can be set via setting JP7 as shown below:
