VDR24 Radar Detection System, Rev 1.0
9.1.7. Verify Runtime Metrics
9.1.7.1. Total Run Time
During continuous operation the system processor keeps track of accumulated run time in
Years, Days, and Hours. This value may be viewed by navigating to screen 4.1. The system is
expected to run uninterrupted and any power failure or internal protective reset will restart the
run time counters. If the run time counter does not accumulate as expected between
maintenance visits, and there have not been known internal or external site power interruptions,
then the cause for those interruptions should be investigated and discovered. It is
recommended that System Runtime metrics be checked on monthly intervals.

9.1.7.2. Watchdog Timer Resets
If any internal conditions arise that suggest any of the VDR24 Controller processors are not
operating correctly, the system will initiate a reset procedure, called a Watchdog Timer Reset.
This is tantamount to the system re-starting itself. Because this is a metric that pertains to
internal self-checks, the number of watchdog timer resets (called WD Resets) is provided on the
front panel display in Screen 3.2.
These reset procedures are not representative of normal operation and any occurrences
whatsoever should be discussed with Island Radar engineering and support.
