VRM app has stopped showing solar inverter input

Running a Venus GX. It's connected to a meter that provides data on the inverter generation. It has worked fine for years, but then the inverter generation only appeared intermittently, eventually never appearing. For a while, if I rebooted the GX, by unplugging its power, and 10 seconds later re-applying the power, the inverter would reappear within the VRM app. After a while, when it repearedly kept 'losing' the inverter, even the re-boot doesn't work. The feed from the meter appears to be working - well, the plug usually flashes as normal.


I'm thinking there is either an issue with the software on the GX, or with the hardware itself. I believe this because I had 'success' for a while, making the inverter reappear by the reboot method. This suggests that the meter is transmitting, that the cable is okay and the GX is receiving, and logging if only for a short while.

Does anyoine have any straightforward suggestions as to how I can determine where the issue lies, and maybe correct it?

Probably aso best to mention what meter it is?

If it goes missing from the GX device list though, it wont transmit to the VRM
