Wrong name in Device List in Remote Console

Sometimes after installing, the name of my custom Venus module for the Tristar MPPT 60 shows up as "BlueSolar Charger" in the Device List in Remote Console.

I guess this is because the GUI reads the name before my module writes it to the DBUS. Restarting the GUI with svc cures it and the correct name appears.

Is there something I can do in my module to fix this?

Yes, likely a you don't send a PropertiesChanged signal to notify others that the name has changed.
