[ts-7000] Warning: TS7800 Watchdog reboots when enabled and time changed

["eric.robishaw" <>]

A warning to all who use the Watchdog (WDT) on the TS7800:

If the dog is enabled, and you change the time backwards more than the feed 
timeout, the dog will immediately reboot the system.

I guess this makes sense, you just need to be aware that evidently the watchdog 
is comparing the RTC to the last feed + feed interval.

So, if you want to change the time backwards, be sure to first disable the dog. 
 I assume this would also apply if you have a time service enabled that 
automatically sets the time.
