6-3
Function: KDMKTONE
ioctl(fd, KDMKTONE, unsigned int arg);
Description: The buzzer’s behavior is determined by the argument
arg
. The “high word” part
of arg gives the length of time the buzzer will sound, and the “low word” part gives the
frequency.
The buzzer’s on / off behavior is controlled by software. If you call the “ioctl” function, you
MUST set the frequency at 100 Hz. If you use a different frequency, the system could crash.
WDT (Watch Dog Timer)
1. Introduction
The WDT works like a watch dog function. You can enable it or disable it. When the user
enables WDT but the application does not acknowledge it, the system will reboot. You can set
the ack time from a minimum of 50 msec to a maximum of 60 seconds.
2. How the WDT works
The sWatchDog is disabled when the system boots up. The user application can also enable
ack. When the user does not ack, it will let the system reboot.
Kernel boot

User application running and enable user ack

include <moxadevic.h>
, and
