Hello Peter, > One thing to verify once you get a watchdog has bitten error is to verify if > that its a real watchdog bite or whether its somehow a false noise generated > report. Can you toggle any I/O bits (via halcmd) after the watchdog has bit > event?
I do have leds on the digital outputs and inputs that use on my custom pcb machine interface. Once the watchdog bites, all signals (inputs and output, haven't checked pwm and encoders) then have the led switched off. And I do at least have always the EstopWrite and EstopSense and AmpEnable leds switched on and shining while the machine is running normally. But I have not tried toggling digital outputs via halcmd after the watchdog bite. Just to be sure, you mean toggling the output *before* I reset the watchdog via halcmd setp hm2_7i43.0.watchdog.has_bit 0 ? > If you can, the report is bogus. > > I really dont expect this is caused by noise but this is pretty strange > (never heard of a similar watchdog issue) Yes, it is strange :( BR Max. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AlienVault Unified Security Management (USM) platform delivers complete security visibility with the essential security capabilities.
