Thanks Tracy,
I have more info.
<Cntrl-B> gets me to a CM> prompt, when I type RS, the following occurs.
FATAL ERROR: System held in reset.
POW_ON never came back (APERR 21)
Waiting until it's reasserted......
No more CM> prompt, Until another <Cntrl-B>
TC does nothing.
Oh, I'm using terminal emulator WS92, running on Win7 Pro, connected via
