No manual PTT when using SmartLink and DAX

Ok... have an issue.... 

Using N1MM's Voice keyer with SmartSDR 3.0.19 works fine. But for some reason I can't key the radio using the MOX button (or PTT via COM-poert). However, it works with VOX.

If I switch TX DAX off, then the MOX (and PTT via COM-port) will work... But then it's not possible to use the Voice Keyer....

This is when working REMOTE using SmartLink.

Any ideas what to try next?

    How would the K9DUR integrate with N1MM? Is it useful when running a contest?

    Sorry, I re-read your first message and that as long as DAX is on then it WILL not allow MIC audio to work, this goes clear back to version 2 or even 1 something.
    it is NOT just a SmartLink issue because I run my radio with the remote MIC / PTT all the time.
    You have to manually switch between DAX on and DAX off to use a voice keyer like K9DUR or N1MM and your MIC/MOX.
    This is one of my pet peeves as well not to have this automated when MOX is switched be it serial port PTT or manual.

    Ok, then it makes more sense to me :) ... so it seems that in order to use a Voice Keyer with Flex, when working remote, we have to use the VOX. This is not optimal.... It really limiting phone contests. Would it be useful opening a ticket for it?

    yea I really dislike using VOX and would be nice if it worked the same way that it does when the MIC is plugged in to the Radio it self. 
    If only they would make it so you could set a DAX PTT/MOX and a MIC PTT/MOX and have it auto switch between DAX OFF and ON when the two different type keying methods triggered.  The audio path is already in DAX just add a option to CAT and SmartSDR or a API,
    I am not a code writer but I'm sure it can be done with a small API program or added to one of the great existing ones like FRStack or FRLogger.
