3. SETTING UP THE RAS FEATURE
If you select "Retriggered by application program" or "Automatic retrigger", you
can select the action when a watchdog timer timeout occurs.
Action on timeout
• Not reset: The equipment is not reset. (Default factory setting)
• Reset: The equipment is reset.
• Memory dump: A memory dump is generated.
If you select "Retriggered by application program" under Watchdog timer
setting and "Not reset" for Action at timeout in the RAS Setup window, set the
status display digital LEDs to the application status display mode so that the
status code is not displayed there. Otherwise, the timeout code may be
overwritten by the status code and may not be able to be checked.
NOTE
• To make a new watchdog timer setting effective, you must restart the
equipment.
When the watchdog timer setting is changed, the following message is
displayed. Click OK to close the box, and then make sure you restart the
equipment.
• If you select "Reset" or "Memory dump" for Action at timeout, the time it
takes to generate timeout is longer than the timeout value set by the
application. This is a normal operation.
This situation occurs because it takes about 1.2 to 1.3 seconds for the
hardware timer on this equipment to actually enable the timeout setting set by
the application. If the timeout is set to 30 seconds, reset or memory dump
starts about 31 seconds after the timeout is set.
• Even if you select "Memory dump" for Action at timeout, a memory dump
may not be generated depending on the situation, for example, when
Windows stops responding due to an interrupt with a high interrupt request
level (IRQL).
The timeout code is displayed on the status display digital LEDs.
(For information about the timeout code, see "(3) Timeout code" in "4.4.2
Codes to be displayed".
