Connecting to the DSS Portal

Use of the DSS LIMS-plus Portal is free.

Agencies who are not able to use the bidirectional interface from their RMS system, will be required to use the DSS Portal.

  • Portal must be accessed on the COLLECT network.
  • Your IT team may need to setup a conditional forwarder in order to be able to access the Portal from your COLLECT terminals.
  • This link provides Instructions that may be helpful for your IT team.
