You are running it correctly. Discharge is supposed to be hot. That is why it is run into the condenser for cooling.

Discharge means discharge from the compressor. Suction means suction into the compressor from the evaporator - this is after the liquid has expanded for cooling - therefore, the inlet is cold.

The "S" or low side is cold. D or high side is hot.
