switcher touch commands not working - Errno 10061

[EyalSi]

I'm using switcher touch with firmware 1.51 discover is working and I'm able to retrieve the device id and the switcher IP. working from windows 10 and python 2.7. Norton anti virus and firewall are disabled. all other commands are failing to connect at: s.connect((switcherIP, 9957))

I'm getting the following error. any idea why? [!] Something went wrong... [!] [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
