33.7 WDT Generic Trap

WDT Event occurs due to counter overflow or an attempt to clear the WDT in a windowed interval. The FWDT[RSTEN] bit in configuration fuse can be set to enable a device reset or be cleared to raise a generic trap in case of a WDT event. When the FWDT[RSTEN] bit is cleared, the WDT event results in (INTCON5[WDT]) WDT generic trap. In this case, the WDT counter resets and starts counting again soon after the WDT event has occurred.
