Post From: Cannot find a way to set a different Instance Client ID number in a second Sierra instance

I stopped having the first copy open automatically the second instance since I will no longer need that and then installed a new copy in a different folder. Changed the Instance Client ID then when I try to open both copies I get this message: SC Data - All Services \| Logon error received from server: Limited to one connection per username for the requested data source. Does that mean I need a second Sierra data connection or do I need a second IB TWS instance? I need the long trades from the first copy of Sierra and the short trades initiated from the second copy of Sierra to both go into the same IB account even though they will be the same symbol and offset one another in the IB account.
