ETX CPU Module ETX-945GSE 2.1 Safety Precautions Always completely disconnect the power cord from your board whenever you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on, because a sudden rush of power can damage sensitive electronic components. Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the board. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times.

ETX CPU Module ETX-945GSE A.1 Programming ETX-945GSE utilizes W83627HG chipset as its watchdog timer controller. Below are the procedures to complete its configuration and the AAEON intial watchdog timer program is also attached based on which you can develop customized program to fit your application.
ETX CPU Module ETX-945GSE (3) Exit the W83627HG config Mode. Undesired result may occur if the config Mode is not exited normally. (1) Enter the W83627HG config Mode To enter the W83627HG config Mode, two special I/O write operations are to be performed during Wait for Key state. To ensure the initial state of the key-check logic, it is necessary to perform two write operations to the Special Address port (2EH).
