Cerbo GX Internal Temperatures not showing on Graph items in VRM

In have a Cerbo GX attached to MultiPlus II and SmartSolar MPPT.

I am trying to monitor Cerbo GX Internal Temperatures using the provided Graph items in VRM but don't get any readings (as per below graph). Any ideas?

@GMF

The internal temperature is like the mppt internal temperature. It is not reported to the vrm in as much it is used for its own self protection/derating.

For example the Cerbo disables the bluetooth when its temperature exceeds 53°C which is why it recommended using an external bluetooth adaptor.

Thanks for the input. Was hoping to monitor temp exactly for the bluetooth issue. Strange that it is an available option for the VRM graph if it does not report to VRM.
