Watch Dog

JWD controls Watch Dog, a system monitor that takes action when a soft- ware application freezes the system. Jumping pins 1-2 will cause WD to reset the system if an application is hung up. Jumping pins 2-3 will gen- erate a non-maskable interrupt signal for the application that is hung up. See the table on the right for jumper settings. Watch Dog can also be enabled via BIOS.

Note: When enabled, the user needs to write their own application software to disable the Watch Dog Timer.
