4 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF SMC COMMAND CODES
4.1 Set/Clear Watchdog-timer

Flash memory. This command must be used to (re-)load or to clear the Timeout of the Watchdog-
timer. The timeout value is given in seconds and has a 16-bit (two byte wide) size. So the Timeout
of the Watchdog can be set to 1-65535 seconds. 0 disables the Watchdog.
