[K3] Firmware load gone bad.

[Jens Petersen-2]

Hi.

While attemting to load newest firmware the upload never started and
display says "MCU LD" and TX is blinking.

Got newest K3 utility but there is no connection to K3.

K3 can now do nothing but blink the TX LED and display says MCU LD.

How do I reset K3 so I can try again?

K3# 3238
P3# 310

Also, Jens, did you turn the P3 off??  I had some problems till I remembered
that.  Also I have the "auto on" for P3 selected, so I had to unplug power
to turn mine off.  Then I had connectivity with the K3 again.  Worth a try.
