BQ24610: Cell Configuration Advice: 6 battery cells in parallel groups

Part Number: BQ24610

Tool/software:

Hello,

I'm trying to design the charge controller for 6 cells. I intend to connect them in groups of 2 in series resulting in 3 sets. These sets will then be connected in parallel to form a single battery bank. 

I'm using the excel calculation tool to determine the schematic component values. What should my user input be for the cell count for my above-mentioned cell configuration (I'm not sure if it should be 2 or 6)? 

It would also be helpful if there is anything else I should look out for while making calculations using this tool for this type of battery arrangement? 

Thank you!

Best Regards,
