N1MM and K3 always on transmit problem

[DBellW6AQ]

I switched computers and now, just getting N1MM on screen causes the K3 to  
transmit.  The K3 works as usual with N1MM off and vice versa.  Phone  or
CW, VOX on or off, no matter.  When N1MM and the K3 are on together, the  K3
is in transmit.
 
Any help?
 
73, Dave

Two ways to fix this (pick one).

* In N1MM Logger, Config ->Configure Ports -> Hardware , click the
"Set" button next to the K3's COM port and change DTR and RTS to
"Always Off".

* On the K3, set CONFIG:ptt-key to "off-off"

Alternatively, you can actually use the RTS and DTR lines on the COM
port for PTT and CW keying, if you want, by configuring them to match.

Yes. You have PTT or KEY(CW) configured wrong. maybe try to start N1MM  
without the K3 on. Find these settings and verify the configuration.  
Also check your cabling. Might try unplugging all cables and  
re-connecting one by one.


Divide and Conquer.
