All, We have a test Than needs to run independently and sometimes without Engineer's presence. It has a 5Kw Heater and a whole bunch of controls and transducers. The problem is we had that 5Kw heater overheated twice already. We do have a LOVE controller independently from LV installed but we need to keep all IO OFF in case the LV crashes. I know it is a known issue with LV. I've tried Watch Dog but 7288 Chasse does not support it. I need something that monitors the Ethernet com and then shut off a relay or something in case that com is down. I might be wrong on it but is there a device I can just purchase? See attached picture.

I can recommend this one, you can set a timeout parameter for the communication port and the device will react on this timeout event… @MAXD wrote: we need to keep all IO OFF in case the LV crashes. I know it is a known issue with LV. Why is it a "know issue with LabVIEW" to crash?
