Watchdog Timer 4
4.1 Watchdog Timer implementation There are two watchdog timer implementations designed on this product, the HW and POST watchdog timers. The watchdog timer circuit is in SuperIO and can be controlled by a hardware jumper and BIOS setup menu through the system BIOS for different boot phases. Please refer to the table below for the different implementations of the Watchdog Timer. Watchdog timer HW Watchdog Timer Implementation This Watchdog Timer can prevent the system from failing before BIOS takeover.
Watchdog timer POST Watchdog Timer Implementation This Watchdog Timer is for recovering the system from crashes during BIOS takeover to OS. After system BIOS takeover, the BIOS will stop the HW watchdog timer and start the POST watchdog timer on the same hardware watchdog circuit. Default Timeout The timeout value is determined by the BIOS settings. NOTE: The default setting for the BIOS item is set to enabled. *OS Watchdog Timer No implementation.
