How to reboot VESC from serial port

Hi,

i have a problem  with Vesc 6.0 mounted on cablecam. After some time (havent understood why yet) the Vesc doesnt send anything ro motors.

i am controlling it through serial port and I am using VescUart library. I send Duty Cycle command and I read all the parameters.

When the Vesc stop working (no more motor control) it still gives me temperature readings through serial port.

I tried to connect Vesc Tool runnung on PC via USB-c and if I send reboot command it start working again.

in the log file I found some errors, Over voltage and ABS overcurrent.

I would like to know how to implement the reboot comand over serial port.

or is there any other way to reboot or restart vesc when it stop working (maybe a watchdog).

Thanks for any advise.

Ivko
