If you enable the watch-dog, the hardware timer will reboot your system if your
software encounters an unexpected error, or stops responding. The watch-dog timer
period (from enable to reset) was decided by the jumper setting of watch-dog time out
period. Please refer to the chapter on jumper settings and connectors. During the period
of enable to reset, you could still cancel reset by disabling the watch-dog.
