GalaxyGuy Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 The default is 'manager' and 'password'. If you open up the comms manager in the system tray and select the com port you have set up, ensure that com port has the correct settings for your panel. If your panel is at default, it will be direct at 9600 baud. If you've modified the internal RS232 speed, then you need to match the settings you have set. Also, the database is a MSSQL, so RSS relies on the db server being up and running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it does, you need to change the word localhost to 127.0.0.1 Some Windows installs seem to have issues with RSS. It will not work if MSSQLSERVER has been installed previously.

Paul Doyle Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 cannot connect to comms server http:127.0.01:8888/disco/?handler =common service once again thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GalaxyGuy Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Make sure you get the loopback IP address correct it's. http:127.0.0.1:8888/disco/?handler =common service Not sure if you just had a typo above missing a dot. It seems newer versions of Windows are not resolving localhost back to the loopback address and RSS requires that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
