Call "ForceInternalWatchdogTrigger". That prevents any other tasks from running so after a few seconds, bang! The command to do that is "test internal wd". There is code for an external watchdog (i.e. using a wd chip outside of the processor) but that won't be used on the Launchpad. 73, Burns Fisher, WB1FJ *AMSAT(R) Engineering -- Flight Software* On Mon, Oct 2, 2023 at 4:18 PM Chris Thompson via pacsat-dev < pacsat-dev(a)amsat.org> wrote: > I made some changes to allow the watchdog to be started.

Watchdog
by Chris Thompson 02 Oct '23

02 Oct '23

I made some changes to allow the watchdog to be started. Once I added some calls to the Uplink task and removed the CAN task from the wdReports list it stopped rebooting in a loop due to the watchdog. I now have it running with the watchdog enabled but I can't cause it to trigger the watchdog from a task. So I either don't understand what needs to be done or the watchdog is not working properly. The watchdog enabled code is checked into g0kla_watchdog If there is a simple line of code to trigger the watchdog then let me know. I was just trying to add a suitable delay. 73 Chris -- Chris E.
