Watch Dog Enable/Disable
JWD controls the Watch Dog function.
Watch Dog is a system monitor that
can reboot the system when a software
application hangs. Pins 1-2 will cause
WD to reset the system if an applica-
tion has frozen. Pins 2-3 will generate
a non-maskable interrupt signal for the
application that is hung up. See the
table on the right for jumper settings.
Watch Dog must also be enabled in
BIOS (setting located in the Power
Menu).
Note: When enabled, the user needs
to write their own application software
in order to disable the Watch Dog tim-
er.
