Generator shows running when it is not (GX device)

The Generator item in the Device List shows "Running" when in fact it is stopped. Also the State shows Running in the Generator menu you get to by tapping on the Generator item in the list.

The state shown in Settings / Generator start/stop menu does reflect the running state of the generator.

The generator service has a parameter /State that changes between 0 and 1 (generator stopped / running) but this does not affect what the Generator menu shows as State.

This seems to be the situation with Venus OS v2.73 and v2.89.

All stock code. Not running SetupHelper, GuiMods, etc.

Edit: disregard. Not sure what I did wrong but it's working now.

I had this issue too, also 2 other digital inputs I use on the cerbo I had to invert to get the correct feedback to show after updating

After digging (and I should have realized this), the Generator device shows the state of the digital input when configured as Generator. I had some bogus entries in the GPIO definitions file on my Raspberry PI which caused the service to appear but not follow the expected input.
