    2.2.2.2 Watchdog Timer Output Option The ARK-5260 contains a watchdog timer that will reset the CPU in the event the CPU stops processing. This feature means the ARK-5260 will recover from a soft- ware failure or an EMI problem. The JWDT1 jumper settings control the outcome of what the computer will do in the event the watchdog timer is tripped.
