Special sysLocation character not displaying properly

Hey Observium team,
Some of our SNMP sysLocations aren't being displayed properly. The " é " is being displayed as " é ".
Is there a way I can tell php to use UTF8, or some other codec that will fix this?
Thanks.

sysLocation are DisplayString which is 7bit ascii.
You need SnmpAdminString to store something like UTF-8.
