Appendices Appendix E: Watchdog Timer (WDT) Setting WDT is widely used for industrial application to monitor CPU activities. The application software depends on its requirement to trigger WDT with adequate timer setting. Before WDT timeout, the functional normal system will reload the WDT. The WDT never time-out for a normal system. The WDT will not be reloaded by an abnormal system, then WDT will time-out and auto-reset the system to avoid abnormal operation.
