Strange NMEA2000 messages from Victron Cerbo GX

Hi,

I have succesfully connected to the Cerbo gx from SignalK on an own raspberry PI. I have used many plugins and everything works great. What I noticed that certain nmea2000 battery messages, not all, are very strange.

The correct ones look like this one:

electrical.batteries.239.capacity.stateOfCharge

The strange ones, which I have on 3 different batteries look like this:

electrical.batteries.electrical.batteries.297.capacity.stateOfCharge.voltage.capacity.stateOfCharge

or

electrical.batteries.electrical.batteries.electrical.batteries.279.capacity.stateOfCharge.voltage.capacity.stateOfCharge.capacity.stateOfCharge

How is it possible these come from the Cerbo GX via the Venus D-Bus plugin ?

I rebooted everything, at ones, piece by piece etc. They look great on my Cerbo with the correct device ID but the messages which I checked via a nmea2000 message browser look messed up.

Thanks

The id's (297/279) are VRM instance ID's. The 239 comes from VE.can devices. It happens on 3.01 and 3.10.
