    4.13 Change Supervisor Password You can set passwords for either supervisor or user password, or for both of them. The differences between them are: supervisor password: can enter and change the settings of the setup menus. user password: can only access the setup menus, but can’t change anything of it. When you select this option, the following message will appear at the center of the screen to assist you in creating a password.
  • Page 52 will be disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely. PASSWORD DISABLED. When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized user from changing any bit of your system configuration.
  • Page 53: Appendix A. Watchdog Timer

    Appendix A. Watchdog Timer The Watchdog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone systems can always recover from catastrophic conditions that cause the CPU to crash. This condition may have occurred by external EMI or a software bug. When the CPU stops working correctly, hardware on the board will either perform a hardware reset (cold boot) or a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) to bring the system back to a known state.
  • Page 54 Note: when exiting a program it is necessary to disable the Watchdog Timer, otherwise the system will reset.
