[Elecraft] KPA500 RESET??

I find it hard to believe that the processor in the KPA is locked up. I've
done quite a bit of experimentation with the RS-232 port on it and have
never locked mine up and never had the need to attempt a reset?

Can you get to the menu of the KPA?  If so, it is not locked up.  However if
you unplug power from the amp and wait a minute to two it may have the same
effect.

How is the Flex connected to the amp?  Are the communication parameters the
same if you are using RS-232?

When you do attempt to key the amp, is there an asterisk (*) shown on the
KPA display?

When you changed bands on the Flex does the amp follow?

I got a new KPA500 for Christmas.  It worked fine.
But I tried to interface it with my FLEX-6300 using a program Called DDUTIL.
DDUTIL connected to both the Flex and KPA500 but now I have NO KPA500
keying.  Yes I have the PA Key hooked up.  Without the DDUTIL the KPA500
worked and changed bands by RF.  That doesn't work either.

Is there a HARD RESET for the KPA500 as I think its computer is locked up
