    To reset, hold reset button down, power on, and let button up.

    F.N., according to the datasheet, the internal RESET has a 1K pullup, so the 10K resistor to ground is not pulling down RESET to the point of actually resetting the chip, and is probably there to prevent chip operation if the power supply is marginal, or to provide a location for manual resetting (by shorting the 10K) if the user finds it necessary.

    Possible Schematic error?
    After a quick check on the schematic, should pin 5 on RN41's "RESET" pin has a pull-up connection instead a pull-down connection?
    The RN41 user manual says "5-RESET, Active LOW reset". Confused.
