bit 0 SWDTEN: Software Enable/Disable for Watchdog Timer bit
(1)
1 = WDT is turned on
0 = WDT is turned off
Note 1: If WDTEN configuration bit = 1, then WDT is always enabled, irrespective of this
control bit. If WDTEN configuration bit = 0, then it is possible to turn WDT on/off with
this control bit.
