Because the robot is now working great, I'm of the opinion that this error doesn't matter. At the same time, I am a little concerned because we shouldn't have any error for a function we aren't calling.
The system watchdog is based on communications and can't be disabled. The user watchdog is what you can control programmatically. I believe it's normal (or at least not uncommon) to see a single System watchdog expiration when starting the program.
