Programming the watchdog timer

If you decide to program the watchdog timer, you must write data
to I/O port 443 (hex). The output data is a value timer. You can
write from 1 (hex) to 3E (hex), and the related timer is 1 sec. to 63
sec.
After data entry, your program must refresh the watchdog timer by
rewriting the I/O port 443 (hex) while simultaneously setting it.
When you want to disable the watchdog timer, your program
should read I/O port 043 (hex).
