Our watchdog timers are designed to keep your computers/PC running continuously. Especially those that are unattended or in remote locations such as kiosks, servers, security, video surveillance, or medical systems. At some point, if you need to keep a computer running 24/7, it will eventually lockup or malfunction due to some of the following reasons:

• The hardware will be frozen (typically from a power glitch);
• The operating system will crash (BSOD);
• A video or other device driver malfunctions;
• Custom application program stops or crashes.

Our products are designed to recognize this event and reset the computer, just the same as if the reset button was pushed.
