Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer

After data entry, your program must refresh the watchdog timer by

rewriting I/O port 443 (hex) while simultaneously setting it. When

you want to disable the watchdog timer, your program should read I/O

port 443 (hex).

The following example shows how you might program the watchdog

timer in BASIC:
