EDIT: I inspected the cables and the PC cable seems damaged? I did not specifically inspect it before inserting so don't know if was already thay way. Images attached.

EDIT 2:
Read up on RS485 ports here

Could be corrupted data readout on MT50? Also it seems the cable heads just look like that from the start for RS485 to USB?

Something exceptionally alarming happened today while doing a charge in parallel.
I have both MT50 and computer monitoring the system, the computer had been continuously running the last 60min, taking data every 10s. I walked over and saw the overheat alarm flash and then clear. So I stuck around to see it happen again and saw on the MT50 the PV volts shoot up to 650+ (I have two panels on, at 80voc , 10isc), before giving the overheat warning again. I of course immediately disconnected my array.
The SCC internal temp was reading 38.7°C and the manual states that the controller will reduce charging current at 81°C and shut off at 85°C, to restart when below 75°C
I caught the beginning of the spike in the program, but with the 10s interval it did not capture the full progression. The PV and charging cut to 0 at the spike, as did panel wattage. I have attached images from the readout.
Is it physically possible for that voltage reading to have been accurate or is this more likely a faulty readout? Everything was normal in the readouts up to that moment . The first voltage dip was a cloud, been stable lighting since then.
