Setting up K3 and N1MM Contest software

Kurt Wiksten
Maybe this is not the right forum but...
I want to use my K3 in CW-contests using N1MM software.
I am using a HP-Laptop with Windows XP and the Elecraft KUSB USB to serial converter.
When working CW I am using my Bencher manipulator connected to the K3.
How do I get the N1MM program to send CW via the KUSB converter?
I have tried
K3 set for PTT-KEY <OFF - dtr>

N1MM set for DTR = CW but then  the K3 goes to transmit mode!
How do I get the PTT-ing right?
Is there anybody out there using N1MM with K3 to advice me?

I use N1MM with both my K3 and K2 [for RTTY].  However, I can't get it
to work with the KUSB adapter, although the adapter works fine with the
K3 Utility program.  I also have a Targus PA70 adapter that provides
serial, parallel, PS2 mouse, keyboard, and another USB port.  It works
fine with N1MM.

PTT-KEY is set to RTS-DTR ... you can't set N1MM to send CW on RTS.
