problem key connection CW on poweSDR.

I wish use key connected on serial port on my PC. PANDORA is not near 
shack; the alone link is RJ45 network cable.

Setup -> CAT Control: PPT Control: Enable PTT not checked; Port: COM3 
(physical serial port thru USB) RTS and DTR checked.
Setup -> DSP -> CW: Connections: Primary :Radio; Secondary COM3; PTT 
Line: RTS; Key Line: DTR; Option Mode B checked.

In this case Key is not operative

I had test physicaly on pin port:
for PTT Line = DTR, PTT is activated on pin 6 DSR (input pin for 
computer that is correct) MOX goes UP
for PTT Line = RTS, PTT is activated on pin 8 CTS (input pin for 
computer that is correct) MOX goes UP
pin 8 and 6 are OK.

but if PTT Line = DTR and Key Line = RTS PTT goes up (pin 6) but key 
signal on pin 8 is not opérative.
if PTT Line = RTS and Key Line = DTR PTT goes up (pin 8) but key signal 
on pin 6 is not opérative.

What is wrong ?

PowerSDR OpenHPSDR mRX PS v3.3.9(6/15/16)

Thank you for help.
