Homebase Mobile Manager won't Perform lock maintenance

If the Engage app is not completely shut down after the firmware update it can stay connected to that lock and prohibit the Homebase Mobile Manager App from connecting to the lock.

If you are getting errors in the Mobile Manager make sure the Engage app has been completely shut down and is not still connecting to the lock in the background.
