Hand Linked EPICS SEI watchdog
In this directory:   /opt/rtcds/lho/h2/target/h2isiitmy/h2isiitmyepics/db/H2 
There is a file:     h2isiitmy1.db 
That contains a field:  grecord(ai,"H2:ISI-ITMY_ST2_PAYLOADWD_IN") 

To make a watchdog link,  we turned it into a calc field
grecord(calc,"H2:ISI-ITMY_ST2_PAYLOADWD_IN")
{
    field(PREC,"3")
    field(SCAN, "0.1 second")
    field(INPA, "H2:SUS-ITMY_M0R0_WDMON_STATE NPP NMS")
    field(CALC, "A")
}
Then we restarted the Front end. EVERYTIME YOU REBUILD THE FRONT END YOU HAVE TO EDIT THE FILE. Note that the mapping to the BSCWATCHDOG c-code, medm, and simulink don't agree. But I leave this to SEIsters to fix. When the Quad trips the lights behind the ACT limit on the ISI watchdog go red. Note - because this is hardwired, there is no bypass so the QUAD watchdog MUST be green. s
