Hi Onyx,

The version is 1.3.86, latest version.

But i find that if i connect BQ27421 EVM, no chemistry icon.

If i connect BQ27426 EVM, chemistry icon shows up.

Is this normal?

Thanks.

Best regards

Hi Mason

You can't update the chem id on this gauge. it is a rom gauge and not designed to allow programming chem ids. You need to use a flash gauge is you want the flexibility of programming a custom chem id.

The chemistry plugin for the bq27426 doesn't work correctly fyi

thanks

Onyx
