Processor

The processor provides a System OK circuit for monitoring
program and microcontroller integrity. The output of the
watchdog timer is available through the 50 pin I/O header on
the processor board. This is an open collector type output (up to
100mA) and will sink current to common when the processor is
operating properly. An open circuit indicates a processor
failure and remains open until proper operation is established.
