the PL8 was NOT in charge or discharge mode this what before even starting any cycle on the unit
It doesent read voltages unless charging or discharging.
And then, before you can get the PL8 to read any accurate voltages you MUST enable this 4 decimal place display, as shows below. It doesent just add another decimal place it removes the "neat graph" data averaging between high and low cells. And then you need to let us know what fluke you were using. Because you are measuring a square wave at high frequency. My fancy expensive fluke gives me FOUR correct but quite different voltages. It reads peak (at the top of the waveform) and low (at the bottom of the waveform) and average (between the two) and the instantanious measurement which is udated several times per second and is the true RMS figure. Tell me which one were you using?
Only the low one is correct and matches the fluke. My cheap fluke reads this waveform as a voltage that is wrong. How wrong depends on the amount of charging or discharging that is going on. The ONLY time the correct cell voltage will ever be displayed on the PL8 is if you choose monitor, and then measure with your test meter. AND tick the box below. Which also removes the data averaging that pulls the cells "closer" together. This is the ONLY way to make the PL8 display raw cell voltage data.
If you dont do this, MONITOR and Tick the box below, your readings are pointless. And do not show true voltage at all.
