OK will do.

I do have a question though. How does the board decide whether to wait
for the xFSTK tool to connect? Sometimes when I reset it it, it does.
Sometimes it goes straight into receiving application. I am not
pressing any button other than reset. Once it makes it mind up, it
seems to stick to it until the power is removed? But it is powered by
USB too, so removing power is not so easy.
