Hi Steve,

Rich,
To do the "reset" I've always unplugged *everything* that could supply power to the PR4: The USB cable, the external power, and the LocoNet if it's supplying railsync.
I also had a chance to peruse the layout computer. My COM port settings are as follows. I've never changed anything from when I first plugged in the PR4 and Windows discovered and installed it. I think the values in your JMRI preferences override these anyway:
In Device Manager:
Bits per second = 9600
Data bits = 8
Parity = None
Stop bits = 1
Flow Control = None?
FIFO buffers both set to high
JMRI preferences:
Baud rate = Fixed at 57,600
Serial connection uses = hardware flow control (recommended)
Packetizer type = Normal (recommended)
Transponding present = No
Turnout command handling = Normal
HTH,
Steve
