Watch Dog Enable/Disable
JWD1 enables the Watch Dog function, a
system monitor that takes action when a
software application freezes the system.
Jumping pins 1-2 will have WD reboot the
system if a program freezes. Jumping pins
2-3 will generate a non-maskable interrupt for
the program that has frozen. See the table
on the right for jumper settings. Watch Dog
must also be enabled in BIOS.
