Serial Break does not always reset the mbed.

I have a program (that I can't make available unfortunately) that prints information to the standard USB serial port every 100ms. There is also a process on the pc that tail's (displays in a console) a short logfile once every second.

I normally use a serial break to reset the mbed after a firmware update, and for other testing purposes.

I am finding that a serial break does not always reset the mbed.

It is possible that the break is being misinterpreted due to "load" on the interface.

I will try and isolate the cause once this job is complete, but it could be a week or so.

For now I will implement a serial string that triggers a reset using

mbed_reset();
