dsPIC33EP512GP506 WDT and Configuration Bit??

[Tom-H-PIC]

I'm working with the dsPIC33EP512GP506, CCS 5.072 and CCSLoad 5.42.
I'm really confused I thought I was in the know on how the WDT work but that is turning out to delusion! Ha
Ok so first things I'm using CCSLoad and a ICD-64U.
In the old CCSload software there was a way to read the configuration bits.
But now all I can find is the “File” tab and “Configuration/ID” ok so that shows the config on the left and the hex for the config bits on the right.
But I'm totally confused how I link the 1L,1H,2L,2H,etc to the address in the Microchip manual for this. (Table on page 380)
The information on the left side of the window is just wrong.
I also don’t see a way of read the bits to check them.
What am I missing?

So on the WDT I'm trying to set it to ~1s.
This is the config fuses I have set.

First thing is you need the fuse NOWDT!.....

On these chips, once you configure the watchdog with the fuses, this overrides the software control. So the setup_wdt functions can't turn off the watchdog if it is enabled in the fuses. This is Note2, on the RCON register in the data sheet.

So NOWDT.

Then in your code:

Thanks Ttelmah!
All working and have a better understanding.
