I don't know much about that module but if it has that capability then yes. you could do that. Most NI modules are quite expensive and now you would have a hardware module dependency for just a watchdog. Most Linux kernels have a watchdog feature if the hardware supports it so I would look into that first. If that's not possible, cost is an issue and it is likely just your application that will hang rather than the OS; then you can spawn a separate process to act as the watchdog.

OK, I got piping/redirection to work. The key was some code/info posted on this C# thread. There are a couple more kernel32 dll calls now, so it's even farther from pure .NET. However, it works pretty good, both from console and System Exec. Next up: Develop similar method to allow a LabVIEW program to accept input from StdIn. -Scott Write Std Out with Redirection.vi
