FSK on K3 using Winkey 3.0

Leroy Buller
Has anyone connected a Winkey 3.0 using RTTY output to  FSK and PTT through
the accessory connection?

I have a WKUSB 3.1 that I connected to the FSK and PTT via the accessory connection.  Worked great.  Took a few tweaks for the software products.  

I didn't think 3.0 was capable of RTTY.

Well, I meant 3.1.  The newest version.  Could you explain the connections
you used?  Pin 1 for fsk. Pin 4 for ptt.  Pin 5 for ground.  Another
components?

As I said, I have the WKUSB.

I tied PTT1 and PTT2 from the WKUSB and fed that to the PTT on Pin 4.

I used KEY1 for CW, KEY2 for FSK - that went to Pin1 and then Pin 5 for the grounds from KEY1, PTT1 and PTT2.

IIRC, I set that scheme because FLDIGI expects KEY2 for RTTY.

I also had to change the default configuration via the demo program so the keyer comes up in RTTY mode rather than CW.  Either N1MM or FLDIGI had an issue that it was not correctly setting the mode in the keyer when it started up.  I think the S/W has since been corrected.  I did report it.  It's just been too long for me to remember exactly which software had the problem.

BTW, I used one of these for the connection to the ACC port.  It makes it so much easier not having to solder tiny pins:

I meant to say "I tied PTT1 and PTT2 from the WKUSB together and fed..."
