Hey guys,

I tried yesterday to implement WDT on TS-7260 and after the applications 
failure the WDT is continuously rebooting system. Does anybody discovered the 
same issue? If yes, did you find the solution? (I used the example code from 
Tech Systems website).

Eddie, - in this message topic you mentioned that the similar problem existed 
on TS-7800 (??? or all TS- Arm boards?) and it was fixed by cut and jumper on 
JTAG header. Can you pls explain how to fix this bug?  Would is apply to 
TS-7260? Do I need to literally cut some jumper on TS-7260?  

Thanks in advance,

- Alex
