This is normal with the new WriteLog audio interface.  Dismiss the
error message (it occurs because the mic input is active) and
proceed.

You have a configuration mismatch between WriteLog and Router ...
Writelog is probably asserting RTS on the CAT port while you have
PTT defined on that port in Router.  You will either need to
disable PTT on the CAT port in Router or use "RTS/DTR override"
in the [RIGS] section of writelog.ini to suppress initialization
of DTR/RTS on the radio port.   See [RIGS] in the WriteLog help
file.

PS. It is not necessary to copy BOTH lists.  This is approrpiate
     for the WriteLog list.
