Dear Support Team, I would like to use 3 additional instances of SC on the same PC (so in total 4 with the main instance) to make a better use of the cores of my CPU (and the 4 screens I use). I am with IB and using the SC Data Feed. Bringing up 3 additional instances following the instructions provided here http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_DTCServer.php#UsingDTCServerForDataAndTradingInAnotherSCInstance does not work: I am getting only market data from the SC Data Feed in the first additional instance (and the main instance) and this only if I open firstly a chartbook in the additonal instance and then in the main instance. Thats the message I receive from the Log File when I bring up a second subinstance: "SC Data - All Services \| Logon error received from server: Limited to one connection per username for the requested data source. \| 2016-06-13 11:02:52" Is it possible to use more than 2 instances (main and subinstance) of SC? Thank you! Best regards. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-06-13 09:26:56
