BQ40Z50EVM-561: Where should I connect the power leads of my battery?

Part Number: BQ40Z50EVM-561
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ40Z50

I'm currently trying to prepare a setup to use the BQ40Z50EVM-561 and I'm trying to understand where I should connect the power leads of my battery.

Are they needed to use the EVM? Am I suppose to plug them in the Pack+ and Pack- on J2 and J4?

From what I understand it's not the case.

I'm just worried to use the cells wires to carry the current drawn by the load.

Here's a picture of the test battery and the power leads in question.

Thanks in advance!
