Watchdog
The watchdog timeout value is given in seconds and can be set to 1-65535 seconds. A setting of 0
seconds will disable the watchdog. When enabled, be sure to trigger the watchdog repeatedly within
the timeout period otherwise a system reset will be initiated.
Please note that not all platforms may supply watchdog functionality, if so the watchdog section will
be grayed out.
Notes:
When using the watchdog feature, be sure to have all partitions mounted read-only.
Otherwise file system corruption and data loss may occur.
It is NOT advisable to use the watchdog feature under Windows since it is recommended to
restart a Windows environment using a safe shutdown procedure.
Backlight Control
Enables or disables the backlight of a display connected via LVDS. The backlight value can be
adjusted by a slider or entered as a numerical value. Allowed values are in range from 0 to 255.
Please note that not all platforms may supply the necessary circuitry, if so this section will be grayed
out.
