Simulator not responding after generating xml file

Hello,

I have a MT880 Meter, I generated the simulator xml file reading the meter with the next command line:

Gurux.DLMS.Simulator.Net.exe -S COM6:9600:8None1 -c 1 -s 185 -a Low -P 12345678 -f 128 -o mt880_v2.xml -t Verbose

However when i try to use the simulator:

Gurux.DLMS.Simulator.Net.exe -p 3000 -c 1 -s 185 -a Low -P 12345678 -f 128 -x mt880_v2.xml -t Verbose -N 2

The respond is:

"

the error in Gurux director is "failed to receive reply from the device in given time".

Note: I added myself the hex pasword in the xml file because it was not added in the first place.
<Secret>31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38</Secret>

I have checked and with the crystal.xml file works just fine.

I appreciate any help

Hi,

I can check this if you send the xml file to by email.
