Hello Nicolas,
The software we use to interface the gauge is linked in the Software Development section of the webpage for this gauge, it is called bqStudio and uses the EV2400 as a USB interface.

Hi Wyatt,
In document SLUA449F, you must use bqEVSW software to create the Golden Data Flash Image.
Can we generate a DFI file with bqStdudio ?
Thank
Nicolas
Hello Nicolas,
I attached an image of the webpage, you should be able to interface using bqStudio, not bqEVSW.

Hello Nicolas,
No you can't create a DFI file in bqStudio, that is an older file format that is not used anymore. You can use the .gg file or .srec file for uploading to the gauge.

Wyatt,
Before I used SLUA449F document to generate a DFI file.
Today, what document should we apply to do a gauge learning (for BQ27510-G3 product) ?
Thank
Nicolas
Hello Nicolas,
Many of the same registers are used for the learning cycle between gauges, SLUA903 is a good guide for learning cycle procedure.

Hi Wyatt,
In the SLUA903 procedure, in section 3.2.1 I do the commands 0x21 and 0x41 but the value of Update Status 0 remains at 02 and does not go to 04. What is GaugingStatus [REST] flag for the gauge BQ27510-G3, I don't find in Technical Reference Manual BQ27510-G3 ?
Hello Nicolas,
SLUA903 is a good reference for the procedure and the charge cycling for this gauge, but the update status registers are a little different for the bq27510-g3.
For update status, 2 means fully learned:
5.1.9 Update Status 0 and Update Status 1 The Update Status n registers are modified automatically by the fuel gauge and the TI evaluation software during the process of creating a golden Data Flash file. A golden file with optimized Qmax and resistance values should have the Update Status = 2.
