Appendix Appendix A. Anti-Crash Technology for BIOS Recovering The motherboard supports Anti-Crash Technology (ACT) for automatical system BIOS recovering. This section describes the recovery and update process. Caution: DO NOT disconnect the AC power supply during the Auto Recovery and BIOS update process. A.1 Auto Recovery The motherboard comes with two BIOS ROMs mounted onto the board as shown below.
Appendix • The LED turns off to indicate the process is finished and the motherboard will automatically boot to your system. If you cannot see the LED status, just wait for about 3 minutes for the motherboard to complete the recovery and then reboot to your system. BIOS / recovery status LED A.2 BIOS Update using ACT Utility When a new version of BIOS is available and you want to update the BIOS, you need to update the BIOS in the master ROM as well as the slave ROM...

Appendix Appendix B. 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.
Appendix Appendix C. Digital I/O Setting Digital I/O can read from or write to a line or an entire digital port, which is a collection of lines. This mechanism helps users achieve various applications such as industrial automation, customized circuit, and laboratory testing. Take the source code below that is written in C for the digital I/O application example.
