Details

You can invoke a system reset by calling

<source lang="c"> NutReset(); </source>

This function will only return in case of a failure.

Use NutResetCause to determine the cause of the last reset.

<source lang="c"> rc = NutResetCause(); </source>

This function should be called at the very first beginning of your main program. It may return any of the following values:

  • NUT_RSTTYP_POWERUP, if the reset was caused by powering up the system.
  • NUT_RSTTYP_WATCHDOG, if the watchdog triggered the last reset.
  • NUT_RSTTYP_EXTERNAL, if an external reset signal appeared like pressing a reset button.
  • NUT_RSTTYP_SOFTWARE, if the reset was triggered by writing to a reset controller register.
  • NUT_RSTTYP_BROWNOUT, if the reset was cause by low voltage detection.

Which code is actually returned depends on the capabilities of the CPU and the board design.
