Applies to

  • KA-2025 Panel Server

KA-2025 Panel Server connects KA-2025s to the rest of the Kahler Automation system and may need to be restarted in some circumstances, such as a changed setting or if KA-2025s are reporting an “Accessing… Host Response Error” message.

This article only applies to KA-2025 Panel Server if it is set up to run as a service. This is the preferred option; the only reason to not install KA-2025 Panel Server as a service is to enable printing from it. If KA-2025 Panel Server is run as an executable, refer to Restarting the KA-2025 Panel Server Executable for more information.

Option 1: Desktop Shortcut

Check for a link on the desktop of the machine. Once on the desktop, look for the “Restart KA-2025 Server.bat” shortcut and run it. Note that the user needs to be an administrator on the machine to restart the KA-2025 Panel Server Service.

Option 2: Services Application

If the desktop shortcut does not exist, the KA-2025 Panel Server Service may be restarted from the “Services” program in Windows. To open this program, click the start button on the taskbar and type in “Services”. Click “Run as administrator” to open the program.

Find the “PanelServer” entry in the services list and then click “restart” on the information bar to the left.

Option 3: Restart the Computer

If there is no ability to use either option 1 or option 2, restart the computer on which panel server runs to force the service to restart. Note: This may take some time and could interrupt other Kahler Automation services.
