Watchdog disabled due to insufficient hardware support

[YO-LS]

Good days community,

I am testing on ctrlX CORE version 2.04 by using simulation and I meet an alert which state that the watchdog had been disabled due to insufficient hartware support. Will this cause any bad effect? If yes, how can I resolve this issue.

So you are using  ctrlX COREvirtual started in ctrlX WORKS correct? As this is running on a standard Windows PC the emulation (simulation) is not real time capable. Would be the same if you are using ctrlX OS on a hardware that is not real time capable. 

For both cases the hardware watchdog needs to be disabled to prevent the system to be stopped by it. That's why this warning is shown and to inform customer about this circumstance.

Hi @CodeShepherd 

Thanks for the information provide. How can we identify whether the hardware is capable to real time?

The ctrlX CORE hardware is always realtime capable. ctrlX COREvirtual is never.

For the usage of ctrlX OS on other hardware it needs to be checked in the implementation process with R&D. Please get in direct contact with your known support person if there is a need.
