Apex Controller

Hello,

 

I'll start by apologizing for not knowing if I'm in the right forum area and possibly not providing the correct information from the start, but I'll give it a try!

Basically, I've got a Sophos XG and everything works find with it. I've got an APEX Controller by Neptune Systems which I can connect to directly through an internal IP address, but I can't get that device to connect outbound to Neptune Systems. The purpose of the device (APEX Controller) is to communicate with lights/pumps for an aquarium - it is a piece of hardware that just passes instructions/reports back and forth between the hardware and the device, then sends the data to Neptune Systems where I can view it. The controller can also fetch bios updates and such. Anyway, I've got it setup to use a private IP address with the correct subnet/gateway and 8.8.8.8 for a DNS server.

I guess I'm curious to know where someone would start to investigate something like this? I've already tried setting a rule in the firewall configure to allow any/all services to do anything they want, so I don't think it is some kind of rule in the firewall section preventing its functionality.
