Cat not working in WXJT-X

Options

Trying to configure wsjt-x on my 8400M. W9NWR and I worked on it for 2 hrs this morning and it keeps saying rig control error. we followed the guide that Ken Wells put out to the letter but still does not work. When I try to test it with the test button, it says rig control error. Any suggestions.

    SmartSDR CAT + WSJTx configured on same port (yours will say Slice A). The port parameters are Protocol = CAT, Type = TCP.

    Mine says 9600 baud rate. CAT is checked under PTT method. We went by Ken Wells guide when we set it up.

    Baud rate is irrelevant for a TCP connection.

    Baud rate is irrelevant, only applies to serial ports and not TCP ports.
