The mainboard on-board Ethernet interface supports all major network operating systems. I/O addresses and interrupts are easily configured via the BIOS Setup. To configure the medium type, to view the current configuration, or to run diagnostics, do the follow- ing: 1.
Page 96
The mainboard is equipped with a watchdog timer that resets the CPU or generates an interrupt if processing comes to a standstill for whatever reason. This feature ensures system reliability in industrial stand-alone and unmanned environments.
Page 97
An on-board watchdog timer reduces the chance of disruptions which EMP (electro-magnetic pulse) interference can cause. This is an invaluable protective device for standalone or un- manned applications. When the watchdog timer activates(CPU processing has come to a halt), it can reset the system, or generate an interrupt on IRQ10, IRQ11, IRQ15, NMI.
