Do you mean a physical switch at the imp location? Like a switch to remove power and turn it back on?
I was thinking of using a 555 timer circuit that is constantly reset by the imp. If the imp crashes and doesn’t reset the 555 timer within a certain amount of time, the circuit will cycle power to the imp. Hopefully the imp will power back on successfully. I suppose that would be a way to reboot remotely?
actually, i didn’t mean to do it remotely. i need a button that will reset the imp.
I would cycle the power off/on, but maybe that’s not the best way? You can’t really use an input pin to reset because the imp may be totally non-responsive. Hopefully one of the imp hardware developers can shed some light on this.
You can take a physical spst button and wire it between your power supply and vin, controlling if to give voltage to the board or not
Yes … a momentary NC pushbutton.
Thanks.
