Device Type
Due to the non-standard nature of most SOAP interfaces, Koios currently only allows for custom SOAP drivers to be made available or built upon request. The only drivers currently offered are:
RDM (Resource Data Manager)
Hostname
The IP address or hostname of the SOAP device.
Timeout
The amount of time in seconds Koios will wait for a response before it considers the connection to the device as failed.
Resource Data Manager
When selecting RDM as the SOAP type, you will be taken to a RDM Authentication Update form and prompted for the following information:

Username
The username used in the header to authenticate the SOAP request.
Authentication Errors
If you have authentication issues when tags are trying to write to the RDM, please ensure that the user account you used has Installer permissions in the RDM software.
Password
The password used in the header to authenticate the SOAP request.
Password Encryption
The RDM requires the password to be SHA-1 encrypted before being added to the SOAP header. Koios handles this for you by SHA-1 encrypting the password as soon as it is saved, so please enter the password as you created it.
Web Authentication Enabled
A extra layer of security that will be set on the RDM device that forces a a Username and Password to be present when running certain commands. If the RDM has this feature enabled, it needs to be enabled in Koios.
