About the stability of your DFL-DE, it's due to the hardware issue, the new hardware has been fixed on that issue and the solution emailed to you can be done when you come back to your office.
The new version has worked very stably.
Anyway, thank you very much for your suggestions.
Yours
Stanley
Hi Stanley,
thanks for your reply, will do that when I'm back in office.
Regarding the suggestion I don't know if you'll manage to think about it for the coming version but I believe it is a very good feature for every embedded system that based on hardware, as sometimes hardware faults can cause the application working with it to crush. On systems that I used to work with we used to develop a watch dog software task with the highest priority in the system which used to poll all other running tasks every x time and check that they are not stuck and if so kill this task and re-open it.
Also every time it polled the task it saved status data that can be restored if required. for example if I was scanning MFT for 15 minutes and the app crushed, during this time the progress of the scan was saved and will be restored after the app recovers.
Anyway just an Idea,
Catch up soon,
Happy new year,
Oded
