The watchdog timer is a hardware mechanism provided to reset the system if the operating system or an application stalls. After starting, the watchdog timer in the application must be periodically reset before the timer expires. Once the watchdog timer expires, a hardware-generated signal is sent to reset the system. DI/O provides input/output to support inter-device communications. Simple programming guides allow easy transmission of digital signals between the system and attached peripherals. # A.1 WDT with API/Windows Matrix WDT API library files and a demo program (incl. source code) can be found on the included driver CD or downloaded from http://www.adlinktech.com. To use the WDT function library for MXE-5400 series, include the header file matrix\_wdt.h and linkage library matrix\_wdt.lib in the C++ project. # InitWDT Initializes watchdog timer function of MXE-5400. InitWDT must be called before the invocation of any other WDT function. @ Syntax ```txt C/C++ BOOL InitWDT() ``` @ Parameters None @ Return code TRUE if watchdog timer is successfully initialized. FALSE if watchdog timer fails to initialize. # SetWDT Sets the timeout value of the watchdog timer. There are two parameters for this function to indicate the timeout ticks and unit. ResetWDT or StopWDT should be called before the expiration of watchdog timer, or the system will reset. # @ Syntax C/C++ BOOL SetWDT(BYTE tick, BYTE unit) # @ Parameters tick Specify the number of ticks for watchdog timer. A valid value is 1 - 255. unit Specify the timeout ticks of the watchdog timer.
ValueDescription
0The unit for one tick is one second. For example, when one tick is specified as 100 and the unit as 0, the timeout value is 100 seconds.
1The unit for one tick is one minute. For example, whenone tick is specified as 100 and the unit as 1, the timeout value is 100 minutes.
# @ Return codes TRUE if timeout value of watchdog timer is successfully set. FALSE if timeout value of watchdog timer is failed to set. # StartWDT Starts watchdog timer function. Once the StartWDT is invoked, the watchdog timer starts. ResetWDT or StopWDT should be called before the expiration of watchdog timer, or the system will reset. # @ Syntax C/C++ BOOL StartWDT() # @ Parameters None # @ Return codes TRUE if watchdog timer is successfully started. FALSE if watchdog timer is failed to start. # ResetWDT Resets the watchdog timer. The invocation of ResetWDT allows restoration of the watchdog timer to the initial timeout value specified in SetWDT function. ResetWDT or StopWDT should be called before the expiration of the watchdog timer, or the system will reset. # @ Syntax C/C++ BOOL ResetWDT() # @ Parameters None # @ Return codes TRUE if watchdog timer is successfully reset. FALSE if watchdog timer fails to reset. # StopWDT Stops the watchdog timer. # @ Syntax C/C++ BOOL StopWDT() # @ Parameters None # @ Return codes TRUE if watchdog timer is successfully stopped. FALSE if watchdog timer fails to stop. # A.2 DI/O with API/Windows Matrix DI/O API library files and a demo program (incl. source code) are located on the included driver CD or downloaded from http://www.adlinktech.com. To use the DI/O function library for MXE-5400 series, include the header file matrix\_dio.h and linkage library matrix\_dio.lib in the C++ project. DI/O functions are as follows. # GPIO\_Init Reserves system resources for digital input/output API service. It is necessary to call this function before using other MXE-5400 DI/O functions. @ Syntax C/C++ I16 GPIO\_Init(void) @ Parameters None @ Return code ```txt NoError ErrorOpenDriverFailed ErrorDeviceIoctl ``` # GPI\_Read() Reads the digital logic state of the digital input line.. @ Syntax C/C++ I16 GPI\_Read(U16 \*pwState) @ Parameters pwState Returns the digital logic state of MXE-5400 digital input channels 1 to 8 (bit 0 to 7) # @ Return code ```txt NoError ErrorOpenDriverFailed ErrorDeviceIoctl ``` # GPO\_Write() Sets the digital logic state of the digital output line. # @ Syntax ```txt C/C++ I16 GPO_Write(U16 wState) ``` # @ Parameters State Sets the digital logic state of MXE-5400 digital output channels 1 to 8 (bit 0 to 7) to 0 or 1. # @ Return code ```txt NoError ErrorOpenDriverFailed ErrorDeviceIoctl ``` # GPO\_Read() Reads the digital logic state of the digital output line. # @ Syntax ```txt C/C++ I16 GPO_Read(U16 *pwState) ``` # @ Parameters pwState Returns the digital logic state of MXE-5400 digital output channels 1 to 8 (bit 0 to 7). # @ Return code NoError ErrorOpenDriverFailed ErrorDeviceIoctl This page intentionally left blank. # Appendix B BIOS Setup ![The image displays a white document icon featuring horizontal grey lines and a large red checkmark on the left side, set against a black background.](.mxe-5400-manual-en-20171027-v1/d4b863884b0554da8ae1b1f66206f848102788eb3a562353f44a546496cbe4f4.jpg) NOTE: BIOS options in the manual are for reference only, and are subject to configuration.
