You should verify the default settings to ensure that communcation will work as desired.

1. Launch XCTU .
2. Verify that the MO command is set to 6, which is the default.
3. Configure the frequency of polls for Remote Manager activity using the DF command. The default is 1440 minutes (24 hours).
4. Enable the SM/UDP feature in Remote Manager for each device. See Enable SM/UDP.

5. To ensure that the device is connected to Remote Manager, you must send an SM/UDP request.

   2. Click Devices in the left pane.
   3. Select the device that you want to work with.
   4. From the right pane, click Actions and then SM/UDP Request Connect.
