Using a UCM Dev Board Rev E with a UC5550
Libs version 1.0.0-preview1
Using USB Client for App deploy
I cannot debug/deploy reliabiy when using my UCM Dev Board.
I have a gut feeling that it is because in order to reset my board it requires pressing the Reset button twice in rapid succession.
Is this normal for the Dev Board?
Not normal! How do you know that it needs twice? What happens when you hold reset down and observe the device manger? Anything else is connected to the dev board? Display?
Are you using preview1 or preview2?

As far as “How do you know that it needs twice?”
Found by accident. If I pressed the button twice quickly the board would reset.
Has happend on different occasions and I have no idea why.
Even when using different app code.
As far as I can recall the Device Manager always showed the UC5550.
Are you using preview1 or preview2? Both, without and change in the code.

Sometimes all is well!
I can live with it so not a real problem for me unless I really need to debug.
For now I use text messages sent to the LCD screen.
Do you have some code that I could use to do a reset from the application?
Thanks!
I would use preview2 exclusively, we fixed a large number of bugs that were present in preview1.
You can reset the board using GHIElectronics.TinyCLR.Native.Power.Reset in the native assembly.
One thing you can try instead of pressing reset twice, is to hold down LDR1 (which should be SYS C) while powering the board or resetting once to prevent your app from running, then try to deploy.
