nrpe agent not working

A Nagios newbie, I have installed a demo version of nagiosxi which would appear to be working as expected. I have now installed an nrpe agent on a RHEL server which has been recognised by nagiosxi server and shows 4 services ('Current Load', 'Current Users', 'Ping' & 'Total Users'). However, only 'ping' has an 'OK' status.
From running 'check command' for the 'Current Load' service returns...
[nagios@vapngoa101 ~]$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 172.31.117.48 -t 30 -c check_load
check_load: Could not parse arguments
Usage:
check_load [-r] -w WLOAD1,WLOAD5,WLOAD15 -c CLOAD1,CLOAD5,CLOAD15

I suspect that there is a problem with the nrpe agent and have looked at other posts regarding this but I cannot find anything that helps. Any help would be appreciated.
(I have attached the nrpe install log)

I have solved my own issue. Schoolboy error, didn't complete the configuration from the XI server. All's well now
