Case 04-4071-U.S. APPLICATION OF JAMES A. HOGAN AND MORTON SKLAROFF DIGITAL COMPUTER MONITORING AND RESTART CIRCUIT ABSTRACT A digital computer monitoring and restart circuit monitors the presence of periodic output signals from the digital computer by a missing pulse detector. When the detector senses a missing output signal from the computer, it indicates this detection operation by an output signal representation of the fact that the computer is not operat- ing. In response to this output signal a restart pulse is generated by a restart pulse generator and is applied to the computer to restart the computer and to reset the monitoring circuit Concurrently, a five-second timer circuit is started. While the timer circuit is operating over its five-second interval, if the monitoring circuit produces another output signal indicating that the computer is not operating, the five-second timer is stopped and an- other restart operation is not attempted. If the five- second timer is allowed to run to the end of the five- second interval without the detection of a computer outage, the monitoring and restart circuit is reset by the five- second timer to an initial state indicative of the continu- ing operation of the computer while awaiting a subsequent computer outage.
