Mode SSB; not taking from radio LSB or USB

I am new to RUMlogNG. I had initially set things up on PC (Log4OM) to get started, but wanted to log my QSOs on my MacBook Pro instead. On Log4OM I am used to that when I log a QSO automatically also right SSB mode is picked, so LSB or USB. On my install of RUMlogNG, this is not working. Also not when I am double clicking a callsign in the bandplan; my radio goes to the right frequency but RUMlogNG is every time showing SSB. I was wondering what I am doing wrong, or how I can tune things that right SSB mode is automatically recorded in a saved QSO. Now, I often have to correct in my log and the QSOs forwarded by QSO upload utility to QRZ also there so it is somewhat inefficient.

My set-up is MacBook Pro M1, Yaesu FT-710 via USB connected to a 1-4 USB hub.

In Settings / TX-1 I have set:
- Use CAT = ticked
- XVTR offset = 0
- Manufacturer = Yaesu
- Type = FT-710
- Interface = Serial
- For PTT use = Do not use
- For RTTY use = Data USB
- For PSK use = Data USB
- For unknown Data use = RTTY
- Poll interval = 1.0s
- No CAT: TCP settings set
- No CAT: Bluetotth LE settings set
- No DxLab Suite Commander settings set
- CAT: Serial:
- Serial port = usbserial-01A99AF20
- Baud rate = 38400
- Stop bits = 1
- Parity = None
- Flow control = Nothing set
- Power up lines = Nothing set

Settings / QRGs : nothing changed

Modes/Sat: only selected FM, FT8, SSB, LSB, USB

Thank you in advance for your support! 73

RL saves the mode (SSB) only, when the data comes from the transceiver. If you want to log a submode, (LSB, USB) you have to enter it manually.

OK, thank you for the blazingly fast reply!
Would it be possible to refine in a next update as the CAT-message/reply from Yaesy FT-710 gives that information; P2 MODE gives 1 in case of LSB and 2 in case of USB?

Thank you and 73

No, I don't see a reason to change this thing.
