Go to the [**Database Connection**](/docs/dss6-user-interface-locations-location-details#databaseconnection) pane, then click **Edit**. 5. Click **Advanced Settings**. 6. In the ODBC drop-down menu, select **Automatic**. 7. Run the [**Refresh**](/docs/dss6-user-interface-channels-refreshing-data) operation.
