none (I am at work and am going  on memory).



YES!  That fixed my problem with the PTT staying on and "drowning out"  the 
CW.  I had to change the Orion's "PTT in CW mode" (found in the CW  MENU) to 
NONE when I use N1MM.  This is a menu item added in the latest  firmware 
upgrade 
from TenTec and I forgot about it.  For some reason, this  is not an issue 
with DXLAB.
 
Another trick I remembered is that when I switch from DXLAB to N1MM, I need  
to turn off the Microkeyer and shut down the computer, then turn on the  
Microkeyer and restart the computer -- in that order.  If I don't, the  ports 
don't 
always get initialized properly.  This doesn't always happen  but I offer it 
to the List as something to try if you are having trouble.
 
Making settings in the logging program, the Microkeyer and the rig really  
complicate setup but they all have to work together or it can be very  
frustrating.
