The first stage of the connection process involves establishing a network connection.
If the connection has been configured to connect directly to an OpenAccess SDK Server, the Connect to Service dialog box appears.

Provide the following information; then, click OK.
Service Host: Type the TCP/IP host name of the OpenAccess SDK service.
Service Port: Type the TCP/IP port on which the OpenAccess SDK service is listening. A default installation of OpenAccess SDK Server uses the port 20092.
Service Data Source: Type the name of a server data source to use for the connection, or you may browse for the source. This step is optional. If a server data source is not specified, the default server data source for that service will be used for the connection.
