Cerbo GX / Venus OS : Creation of a Generic EV Charger via MQTT failed

Hi,

I'm trying to create a generic EV Charger entry in my Cerbo GX (Venus OS V3.33). I have enabled both MQTT SSL and MQTT Clear Text, and I am able to connect via MQTT Explorer and publish messages successfully.

According to other posts and the documentation, to add a « vecharger » I should send the following payload to the topic device/fe001/Status:

{ "clientId": "fe001", "connected": 1, "version": "1.0", "services": { "ev1": "evcharger" } }

After doing this, I should receive the device instance and respond on device/fe001/DBus.

However, nothing happens. Am I missing something required to allow new devices from MQTT on my production Venus OS?

PS: I know I will have to send other messages after the creation, but I didn't receive any Instance ID from the VenusOS.

Thanks a lot for your help.
