The KX3 can be keyed using the "KY" command, but I do not think
HRD/DM780 implements that command - few applications do.
The easiest solution is to use the K1EL Winkeyer.
HRD/DM780 can also send CW using a serial port, but that is a different
port than is used for rig control, and you need something like the 'one
transistor keying interface' to make the RS-232 signal levels into
on-off switching needed to key the rig.

I didn't think that DM-780 would key CW, or at least it did not do
this when I used it. However, it may do so now, but how are you
asking DM-780 to key the rig? Have they added a tone generator for
CW? If not, then how is the command to key CW going to the rig?
I'm not sure if the KX3 has a 'KEY CW' command on the serial port, but
if it doesn't have that then it may be that there's no way to send a
key up/down command to the radio...

Subject: [Elecraft] Ham Radio Deluxe and KX3 Radio
I have been configuring HRD with my KX3 and wondering if anyone else has
done so?
I can get HRD to copy and send PSK31 and RTTY with the KX3 in Data A
(rev)
mode. Although I can copy CW, HRD will not key the KX3 for CW
I have tried multiple setting in the KX3 and HRD.
Has anyone been able to get CW to work with HRD?
