*Which PTT LED?*  There are two PTT LEDs on microKEYER II (PTT1 which
is the mic PTT and PTT2 which is the ACC jack PTT) and one on the K3.

As documented in the microKEYER II Users Manual and the configuration
examples for several popular software packages, you should configure
your digital software to generate PTT by raising the RTS line on a
virtual serial port.  In addition, Router/MK II should generally be
configured to assert PTT2 when transmitting digital modes.
