    Once the USB PC Watchdog has been enabled, your application must 'kick' the device on a regular basis. If the watchdog does not detect a 'kick' within a timeout period the reset button of the PC is 'pushed'.
    Simple to install
    The USB PC Watchdog is simple to install, requiring a connection to an internal USB port on the motherboard and the reset switch input. A feedthrough is available to allow the reset switch to work as normal.

    Simple to use
    The USB PC Watchdog is easy to use. Drivers are available for Windows and Linux.
    A number of simple commands are used to enable and disable the device, and set the timing parameters.
