20-14 Network Tab Model 831 Manual
A Model 831 in an 831-INT with the
watchdog enabled will reboot each
time the watchdog count expires. To
prevent this, disable the watchdog on
the Communication Network tab.
If the Communications Watchdog is enabled, the watchdog
count will be displayed on the Preamp page of the Live tab.
The count tells how many seconds remain until the system
will reboot. The watchdog timeout starts after 300 seconds,
or 5 minutes, on the countdown, as shown in Figure 20-17.
On some older Model 831 meters,
the timeout limit may be increased.

Countdown
When the Communications Watchdog timer expires, a
record is created in the Session Log, as described in "Session
Log Tab" in the "Data Display" chapter.
Analog Modem Connection
If an analog modem that is connected to a remote Model 831
does not respond to initialization commands after a period of
10 minutes, the Model 831 will reset the analog modem by
power cycling the USB host port.
If a USB flash memory drive is connected and copying data,
the Model 831 will wait until the data has been copied
completely before performing the USB host port power
cycle.
After the USB host port power cycle is complete, you can
then re-establish remote connection to Model 831 through
