    There no option available.

    Once SEPM will update virus defination,SEP client automatic update next heart beat setting.

    You can adjust the schedule that Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager uses to download content updates from LiveUpdate to the management server. For example, you can change the default server schedule frequency from hourly to daily to save bandwidth.

    There is no option to control client updates from the SEPM. They get updated after checking in. The only thing you can do is adjust your LU policy and set a schedule are the hours you want or out a LUA in place.
