Watchdog
The Watchdog feature is provided for recovery purposes and acts as a safety mechanism in cases of
unforeseen incidents such as temporary power failures.
If the application "locks up", the ViconNet application is restarted automatically after approximately one and a
half minutes. This is useful, for example, if a scheduled macro was running during the night and there was a
power failure. In this case, the application will automatically restart and resume running the macro.
