This looks totally different compared to what was in the example 3 axis file I started with. That logic simply didn't work, only a complete pwrdown restart worked. When it was a real, lit the leds, watchdog bite. You have an advantage on me however, you show a setp watchdog.timeout_ns parameter, which is not documented anyplace in the very hard to find 7i90 documentation. The pdf of it that I got from your site, seems not to even contain the word "watchdog" anyplace in it, so where is this sort of info actually squirreled away?
