E3IoServer contains a watchdog mechanism, which monitors calls performed by E3Run. If any of these calls last longer than one minute, the default value, then the following actions are taken:

•An error message is recorded on Elipse Power's log

•E3IoServer process is immediately terminated, causing a DCOM call from E3Run, or from Elipse Power Studio, to fail, probably creating a new process for E3IoServer

A value of 0 (zero) in the 'Watchdog' timeout (seconds) field disables this watchdog mechanism. Possible values for this option are in the range between 10 (ten seconds) and 3600 (one hour).
