2.5 Watchdog Timer Settings
A watchdog timer (WDT) is a device that performs a specific
operation after a certain period of time if something goes wrong and the
system does not recover on its own. A watchdog timer can perform a
warm boot(restarting the system) after a certain number of milliseconds.
The GW-7228 module supplies a jumper for users to active the
watchdog timer or not. If users want to use this WDT, can open the GW-
7228 cover and use the JP1 to activate the WDT built in the module, as
the Figure 2-9. Note that the default setting is active.
