What do you mean with "no longer" Did it work before?
If that is so, maybe you upgraded FoxView which copies a new .profile to 
/opt/ia and maybe overwrites some other files too.
By default a remote station:

- doesn't allow omsets
- protects value 100 which disables 2nd level menus and some other things
- does not allow alarms acks etc.
and more.

Try to include the following in an environment of your choice to test this:

protect all
unprotect all
enable omsets

And check out the /usr/fox/wp/data/fv_cmds and am_cmds files to comment out 
the lines that protect some functions in there. I don't have the files here 
but when you look into them it is quite obvious what to do.
