Hi Terry,
Correct. Generally, you'll just want to use the _other_ COM port in your code. You can use both--but then you'll lose the ability to debug.
To erase your current app (so you can deploy something new):
1. Apply 3.3VDC-12VDC power to the "DTR" pin (pin 3).
2. Power off your Netduino Mini and then repower it.
3. Press "PING" in MFDeploy. Then press "ERASE" to erase your current app.
4. Power off your Netduino Mini again and then repower it.
5. You should be good to go.

What do you mean by "the _other_ COM port". Does this mean by using either serial ports I have to reset the module to upload new code?
I'm new to these devices, trying to clarify before I make a purchase.
Thanks!
