1.8.2 BIOS CMOS (JCMOS1) The PCE-5127/7127 CPU card contains a jumper that can erase BIOS CMOS da ta and reset the system BIOS information. Normally this jumper should be set with pins 1-2 closed. If you want to reset those data, set JCMOS1 to 2-3 closed for just a few seconds, and then move the jumper back to 1-2 closed.
1.8.3 Watchdog timer output (JWDT1) The PCE-5127/7127 contains a watchdog timer that will rese t the CPU in the eve nt the CPU stops processing. This feature means the PCE-5127/7127 will recover from a software failure o r an EMI prob lem. The JWDT1 jumper settings control the o ut- come of what the computer will do in the event the watchdog timer is tripped.
