Hello,

I need for my programm a reset-function. I want to call a function ResetApplication(). Then I want to use the watchdog to reset the application.
I do not know how to use the watchdog exactly.
After the reset the programm should start at the beginning.

If the following code complete or have I to do something else. To reset I only have to start the watchdog!?

void ResetApplicatio(void)
{
COPCTL= 0x01;
}

Best regards

That'll work though you may want to prevent further processing while
waiting:

void ResetApplication( void)
{
asm("sei");
COPCTL=0x01;
while(1);
}
