{{dbox-orange| Abstract method that must be overrided in descendant class}}

 

The setup_watchdog() methods activates the hardware Watchdog of the microcontroler. 2 seconds (2000 ms) may represent a good timing.  

Once activated, the feed_watchdog() must be called before the timeout occurs otherwise the microcontroler will reset.

Once activated, the feed_watchdog() must be called before the timeout occurs otherwise the microcontroler will reset.

Remarks: the watchdog is automatically feeded at every iteration of the ''userloop''.

Remarks:

* the watchdog is automatically feeded at every iteration of the ''userloop''.

* take care of the timing when using blocking function (like Ethernet request) because it may timeout the watchdog.
