Here's what I need in a "final" procedure.

Of course normal termination isn't a problem, but I have various I/O
boards that I need to ensure are properly terminated/safed (put in a
known state (e.g. not transmitting, outputs reconfigured to inputs) in
the event of a program crash. This is in part to ensure that
transmitters aren't overheated from prolonged operation (e.g. stuck in
the xmit state) or shorted because someone starts dismantling the test
setup thinking that the devices are automatically safed upon program
crash.

How is that handled normally? Will any of the new f2k3, f2k8 features
help me in this area (fault detection/recovery)?
