K3 and N1MM Logger

I can get N1MM to see the K3. I am switching logging software, for the
K2 I used WriteLog. The frequency and mode show in the title bar for
N1MM. However, I can NOT get N1MM to send CW. to the K3. I see the
software thinking it is sending the CW (the stop light gets bright and
then dims).

I am using a serial cable connected to the only serial port on the
computer running Windows XP. This same cable and port were able to load
the firmware. For the N1MM configuration I have set Com1 to Elecraft K3,
and the CW/Other box is checked. In the parameters for this port, I have
DTR set to CW and RTS set to Always on. I have tried other combinations
for the DTR and RTS settings and none seem to work. The CW/PTT port
address is 3F8.

I appreciate guidance from those who have made this work.

73,

Re: K3 and N1MM Logger

Paul,

The settings you give are identical to what I'm using, however you didn't
mention setting the K3 CONFIG parameter PTT--KEY to OFF - dtr.
This will match the settings you have in N1MM logger.

Re: K3 and N1MM Logger

When doing this, are you still able to have paddles connected to the K3
to send corrections and unexpected information by hand?

Yes.

I have a paddle plugged into the paddle jack, a bug in the key jack, and
use DTR for computer keying in contests.

All of these are live.

YES>.. the K3 has a PADDLE input jack SEPARATE from the KEY (which would
come from the external keying device).

Re: K3 and N1MM Logger

In reply to this post by konigsburg

Thanks to all of those who answered on and off the list. It is working
now. The configuration that is working for me is:
On the K3 - PTT-KEY is set to Off-dtr
N1MM is set to CW for DTR and always off for RTS.
I am able to key via the paddles and/or N1MM.

73,
