# Appendix A Watchdog Timer (WDT) & DI/O Function Libraries

This appendix describes use of the watchdog timer (WDT) function library for the MXE-5500.

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 downloaded from http://www.adlinktech.com/PD/web/PD\_detail.php?utm\_source=&cKind=&pid=1631.

To use the WDT function library for MXE-5500 series, include the header file matrix\_wdt.h and linkage library matrix\_wdt.lib in the C++ project.

# C.4.1 Watchdog

The watchdog timeout value is given in seconds and can be set at 1 to 65535 seconds, with a value of 0 seconds disabling the watchdog. When enabled, the watchdog should be triggered repeatedly within the timeout period to avoid system reset. Note that not all platforms support watchdog functionality, in which case the section is grayed out.

![The image displays a white document icon with a folded top-right corner and horizontal lines near the bottom. A large, bold red checkmark is superimposed diagonally across the center of the paper.](.mxe-5500-50-1z216-2000-200-en/9fd0d7175567b5f55c8eee83c13fb982632d0fcdd9e4cdfa9d6e7653734bd8ba.jpg)
NOTE:

▶ When using the watchdog feature, all partitions must be mounted as read-only, to avoid file system corruption and data loss.
It is not advisable to use the watchdog feature in a Windows environment, since Windows restart uses a safe shutdown procedure.

# C.4.2 Backlight Control

Enables or disables the backlight of display connected via LVDS, with value adjusted by a slider or entered as a numerical, from 0 to 255. Note that not all platforms support the necessary circuitry, in which case the section is grayed out. Radio boxes allow selection of control by BMC or LVDS I2C interface.

# C.4.3 Smart Fan

Provides control of either CPU or system fans (if applicable). The accessible system is also listed in SEMA Features in the System Overview Tab or via the "sema cap" command line

All fans can have a discrete independent temperature source defining the temperature sensor used for calculating speed.

Settings are as shown

<table><tr><td>Setting</td><td>Function</td></tr><tr><td>Auto</td><td>No other settings required</td></tr><tr><td>Off</td><td>Fan is disabled</td></tr><tr><td>On</td><td>Fan runs at maximum speed</td></tr></table>

Trigger Temp and PWM Level determine the characteristic curve of the fan control. Sample settings as shown result in fan function as follows.

<table><tr><td>Temperature</td><td>Fan PWM level</td></tr><tr><td>Falls below 15°C</td><td>Turns off</td></tr><tr><td>Between 15°C and 60°C</td><td>30%</td></tr><tr><td>Between 40°C and 70°C</td><td>40%</td></tr><tr><td>Between 48°C and 80°C</td><td>63%</td></tr><tr><td>Exceeds 55°C</td><td>100%</td></tr></table>

NOTE:

If the temperature drops below one of the trigger points, the lower PWM value is taken.

# C.5 Hardware Monitor Tab

Shows Power Consumption and Temperatures information from the System Health Tab in a graphical format.

![The image displays a software window titled 'SEMA - Smart Embedded Management Agent - 2.5 R4'. The window contains an 'About' tab with a sub-navigation bar showing tabs for 'Overview', 'System Health', 'User Flash', 'Hardware Controls', 'Hardware Monitor', 'I2C Bus', and 'GPIO'. The 'Hardware Monitor' tab is currently selected.\n\nThe main content area is divided into three sections:\n\n1.  **Power Consumption**: A graph showing a grid with Y-axis labels from '0W' to '40W' and X-axis labels from '+0s' to '+300s'. A red line stays flat at 0W. A vertical black cursor line is positioned around the +180s mark with a label '0W' next to it.\n\n2.  **Temperatures**: A graph showing a grid with Y-axis labels ranging from '-40°C' to '120°C' and X-axis labels from '+0s' to '+300s'. A red line remains steady around the 40-50°C range. A vertical black cursor line intersects the graph at a point labeled '42°C'. Below the graph is a legend: 'CPU Temperature (in red)' and 'Board Temperature (in blue)'.\n\n3.  **Voltages**: A table listing voltage readings. The top row lists headers 'VCORE', 'V GFX', 'V5', 'V1P35_DRAM', 'VBAT', 'V3P3', 'V12', 'VIN', all displaying a value of '0.000V'. The second row lists headers 'AIN8', 'AIN9', 'AIN10', 'AIN11', 'AIN12', 'AIN13', 'AIN14', 'AIN15', all displaying 'N/A'.\n\nAt the bottom, there is an unchecked checkbox labeled 'Enable Logging'. Below this are logos for 'ADLINK TECHNOLOGY INC.' and 'SEMA'. On the bottom right, there is an 'Exit' button and a green status indicator next to the text 'BIOS Ok!'.](.mxe-5500-50-1z216-2000-200-en/3e41a8e5ba3983430c6bc3af7d632af6a0f23f409d90b03163b2eb1a7788cc11.jpg)

When logging is enabled, all values queried every second, such as temperatures and power consumption, are recorded to a log file.

At startup, logging is disabled by default.

To enable, check Enable Logging and select a file. New data is appended to the selected file, with existing data not overwritten.

Logging ceases when Enable Logging is unchecked or the program closed, and suspended during a File Open dialog.

Data is Recorded as simple ASCII text in tab-separated columns for easy import/export into any spreadsheet calculation program or other data processing tool. The first line written to the log file contains captions indicating the content and the respective unit of the data to be recorded. When any data is unavailable, such as when, for example, no sensor is detected, the corresponding column is skipped.

Currently available items are as follows

<table><tr><td>Caption</td><td>Content/Unit</td></tr><tr><td>Total[m]</td><td>Total uptime in minutes</td></tr><tr><td>PwrUp[s]</td><td>Uptime since last power up in seconds</td></tr><tr><td>Tcpu[°C]</td><td>CPU temperature in °C</td></tr><tr><td>Tbrd[°C]</td><td>Board temperature in °C</td></tr><tr><td>Tcpumin[°C]</td><td>Minimal CPU temperature in °C</td></tr><tr><td>Tcpumax[°C]</td><td>Maximal CPU temperature in °C</td></tr><tr><td>Tbrdmin[°C]</td><td>Minimal board temperature in °C</td></tr><tr><td>Tbrdmax[°C]</td><td>Maximal board temperature in °C</td></tr><tr><td>Imp[mA]</td><td>Main power current in mA</td></tr><tr><td>Pmp[W]</td><td>Power on main power current rail in W</td></tr><tr><td>n[1]</td><td>Number of samples used for filtering</td></tr><tr><td>Impf[mA]</td><td>Filtered main power current in mA</td></tr><tr><td>Pmpf[W]</td><td>Filtered power on main power current rail in W</td></tr><tr><td>FanSpdSys1-3[RPM]</td><td>CPU-Fan speed in RPM</td></tr><tr><td>FanSpdCPU[RPM]</td><td>System-Fan speed in RPM</td></tr><tr><td>‘VoltageName’[V]</td><td>For each monitored voltage in V</td></tr></table>

# C.6 I₂C Bus Tab

The board management controller (BMC) can access up to four external $I_{2}C$ busses, with byte and block access for read and write implemented. Both common bus speeds of 100 and 400kHz are supported.

To read data from or write data to the BMC an address (8-bit) must be given as well as the amount of data to be transferred (length) plus the register offset.

Data should then be handed over in hex values forming a hex string, as shown.
