Manual Impact-E 3x series embedded computer user manual Safety Precautions • Before you unpack your embedded computer system, ensure you carefully read through this manual and follow any related safety and operational instructions. • Only suitably qualified and experienced personnel should access the internals of the unit. • Before commencing work within the computer ensure that the mains is disconnected from the computer and any attached peripherals.
Manual Impact-E 3x series embedded computer user manual Electrostatic Discharge Damage • When accessing the internals of the computer, you must be aware that many of the components are electrostatic discharge sensitive (ESD). These components can easily be damaged if suitable precautions are not taken. ESD damage is not always immediately apparent and may result in a failure many weeks later. When working on equipment we recommend the use of an ESD mat and wrist strap. Page 5 of 40 Amplicon.

Manual Impact-E 3x series embedded computer user manual B. Appendix B: Watchdog Timer B.1 Introduction A watchdog timer is a piece of hardware that can be used to automatically detect system anomalies and reset the processor in the case any problems are found. Generally speaking, a watchdog timer is based on a counter that counts down from an initial value to zero. The software selects the counter's initial value and periodically restarts it.
