Restart using the WDT

Projects Programming

Hi Guys

Remember I'm a novice and some would say a bit of an idiot .. .. .. .

I'm trying to use the WDTimer to invoke a restart of my sketch if certain conditions are met .. ..however, I'm very concerned about all the warnings I've found about a wrong code causing a perpetual loop ..

I've tried the example in the library a couple of ways round but I'm clearly miles away. Part of the problem for me is that there seems to be quite a lot in the library example I don't need but my understanding isn't too good.

I've attached a small sketch with my attempt and the bit of my code I want to use it with .. .. I appreciate it won't compile but could somebody please let me know if I'm on the right track.

Thanks

{
void loop() {
  
}

Why is this function inside a block?

Because if it wasn't you'd have nothing to moan at me about !! :smiley:

Well, OK, as long as you don't have any unrealistic expectations that the code will compile or work.

So, what WAS the point of the post?
