Post From: Can't connect to TWS

I just installed Sierra Chart 1420. I have TWS 972.1p and the latest API. I think I've got my SC configuration right. I have my IB username and password set and the host set to 127.0.0.1:7496. TWS is running and I have the API settings enabled there. I can start SC fine but when I try to connect to TWS I get this:

Any idea what's wrong here? Thanks.
