Icom Omnirig Issue

Hi all.
I went back to running log4om V2 after some bug start with the first releases (loved the interface), but still some of the same problems running the latest version (been looking thorugh topics i can not find any quick answers), so that's why i writing this new topic...
Hardware is Icom IC-7700, running on windows 10 computer.
The software am running is Omnirig 1.19, Log4Om r 2.8.0.0., jtdx 2.1.0-rc151, wsjt-x 2.2.2., jtalert and gridtracker (all latest releases).
Starting Log4Om + jtdx or wsjt-x and it looks good then running things "manualy" (selecting mode none or usb in jtdx/wsjt-x), and setting the radio manualy to mode USB or USB-D (both configured to ACC outlet).
The first problem: If i select mode Data/pkt in jtdx or wsjt-x programs the radio goes to RTTY-R, this i can live with, but stupid..(all is working with HRD ;) )
The next problem If i clicking on a station in cluster the radio select correct mode on cw, ssb BUT if i select and FT-8/FT-4 station the radio select RTTY-R.
Any help out there having solved this ?

Regards and thx

Wrong settings in Log4OM Program config/cat control

Plus

Incorrect setting in WSJT Radio tab select Omnirig and correct mode

Probably also

Incorrect 7700.ini file selected in Omnirig, from memory should be 7700v2 Data or 7700v2

Thx for getting me on the right path Terry :) .
Solution: Use the ic-7700V2-Data.ini located on the download page of omnirig, not included with the original setup with log4om. http://dxatlas.com/OmniRig/Files/RigIni.zip
Make shure omnirig is not running at all (kill omnirig32.exe if running with taskmanager)
Extract the ini files from the downloaded file into C:\Program Files (x86)\Afreet\OmniRig\Rigs Folder, and restart the omnirig/log4om program and select ic-7700V2-Data.

Edited: Worked for some minutes, the lost contact with wsjt-x. Restarted computer, worked again for some minutes the log4om started hanging...
Is it a way to use Log4OM V2 without omnirig just for logging and read the frequency from HRD ?
