Hi,
Since FX2 does not have a watchdog timer, I am trying to simulate watchdog behavior using Timer 2 on chip.
The timer setup seems to be functional, but when I try to execute longjmp(), FX2 dies. Any future access to the chip will hang. In the debugger, when I try to execute longjmp(), I will loose the debug connection. Thee only way to get it back is to reset USB.
Is this because of longjmp() or some other thing that I don't know. If it is not appropriate to use longjmp, how can I simulate the watchdog behavior so that lockup in 8051 can be prevented.
Any comments are welcome,
Thanks,

here is the pseudo code I am using:
void main() { // ReEnumeration setjmp(jmp_buf); // Hardware setup // Initialization while (1) { // interrupt handling } }
void ISR_Timer2 interrupt 5 { TR2 = 0; TF2 = 0; longjmp(jmp_buf, 3); }
