Review comment:
       Hey @davids5
   What name do you refer to?
   The `Auto-monitor` is an option that is under the Watchdog Timer Support option.
   The `Auto-monitor` provides 4 mechanisms to feed the dog automatically.
   I think the `auto` prefix stands for automatically,i.e., without the developer configuring it in execution code and the `monitor` word means that it will monitor your code because if one task gets stuck the timer will expire and the chip will be reseted.
