Phoenix smart charger IP43 12/30 1+1 charge with 47A

My Phoenix smart charges suddenly jumped from charging with expected 30A to charging with 47A. Everything looks normal but both my smartshunt and the charger is showing the same current. Max current is set to 30A in the Victron Connect app. Charger is in Li-ion mode.

Apsorbtion voltage is set to 14.2 volt, but the BMS stopped the charger when the voltage reached 14.4V Not sure what would have happened if i had continued to charge.

Charger is just one month old and has been workin fine until now.

Whats going on here?

Some additional information.

After a disconnecting the charger from battery and mains it seems to charge at the correct current and switched to absorbtion charge at the correct voltage, but i still get at strange LED blinking pattern about once a minute. four or five fast flashes in the following pattern:

Orange charge state leds

oxoxo
xoxox
oxoxo

Blue leds

ooxx
xxoo

ooxx

I cant see that pattern described in the manual.
