Hello,
You should use the GPCCHEM tool to ensure that the chemID you are wishing to use is a good match for the cells that you are using. The link to the GPCCHEM tool I have provided has a a user's guide for how to use the tool.

From spec description, bq27426 can't be programmed with specific battery chemistry proile. Three pre-defined chemistry profile are available in the device memory. So if we use GPCCHEM tool to have new chemistry profile, can we load in this new battery chemistry profile?

Hello,
No, you can only load one of the three chemIDs onto the gauge. The GPCCHEM tool will give you a report when you are finished with the tool. In this report there will be a section that tells you how good of a match your cell is with the three chemIDs.
Regards,
Jonny.
