Dave,

The ACC2 will provide KEYOUT (for keying an amplifier, etc). You need KEYIN (or PTT).
The PTT input is available on the mic jack.

I made a special adapter for the CM500 using a 3 circuit 3.5mm jack. The tip and shell connect to the CM500 mic, and the ring and shell connect to a pushbutton switch that I use for PTT. It works very well.

Hi folks,
Newbie Dave with a KX3 and a brand new pair of Yamaha CM-500 headphones. I need 
a PTT switch. I’d like to build one. Is it as easy as wiring a momentary PTT, 
using the ACC2 port, the ACC2 I/O ON menu settings and a 1/8” mini jack?

Read both the Elecraft manual and the Fred Cady book, still a little confused.

TIA and be kind,
