Watchdog Acknowledge Details

If the watchdog object is running, this VI restarts the countdown. If the watchdog object is expired, you must either use the Watchdog Configure VI to create a new watchdog object or use the Watchdog Start VI to restart the countdown of the watchdog timer. If the watchdog object is disabled, you must use either the Watchdog Whack VI or the Watchdog Enable VI to enable the watchdog object and start the countdown of the watchdog timer.
