VE.CAN Solar Yield 'Yesterday' incorrect on VRM and Venus but Correct on Connect?

Hi,

For the last two Venus OS updates (V2.72 and V2.73) my two VE.CAN MPPT's solar yield yesterday total has always been stuck on the last highest yield, rather than yesterdays total yield.

Both VE.CAN MPPT's running Firmware V3.08

Although it displays properly for my VE.Direct MPPT and also displays on Victron Connect correctly, and seemingly the weekly totals etc are still correct, it's just for VE.CAN yesterdays yield is always the same, currently for the last few weeks they've been stuck at 3.37kWh and 3.75kWh respectively.

It's a minor point, but very handy at quick glance to compare when it works.

Will Venus OS V2.80 fix this? Or do I have another issue?

2way is on to look at my system.

Thanks

Al

Same problem here with Cerbo GX (2.90~14) and two MPPTs (SmartSolar MPPT VE.Can 250/100 rev2 with FW 3.10). Values for 'Yesterday' in Cerbo an via MQTT tools stay on old values. I had one update some days ago, but last days i get the same values.

Just to update,

Today it looks like it is working correctly, this is since I booted down to Venus V2.72 then back to V2.73 as it looked like I had a missing or corrupted overviewsolarcharger.qml file - probably my own fault when editing the files to adjust font size for viewing the remote console on a 7" tablet mirror.

Anyway all is showing correctly again :)
