9.2 Key Programming (Data Flash Key)

By default, the fuel gauge contains a default plain-text authentication key of
0x0123456789ABCDEFFEDCBA9876543210. This default key is intended for development purposes. It must be changed to a secret key and the part immediately SEALED, before putting a pack into operation. Once written, a new plain-text key cannot be read again from the fuel gauge while in SEALED mode.

To change the pre-programmed authentication key from its default value, follow the steps below:

  1. Unseal the fuel gauge.
  2. Send the Authenticate() command.
  3. Write 0x00 to BlockDataControl() to enable the authentication data commands.
  4. Send the DataFlashClass() command with 112 (0x70) to set the Security class.
  5. Up to 32 bytes of data can be read directly from the BlockData() (0x40 through 0x5F) and the authentication key is located at 0x48 (0x40 + 0x08 offset) to 0x57 (0x40 + 0x17 offset).
  6. Write the new authentication key to the corresponding locations (0x48 through 0x57) using the BlockData() command.
  7. Compute the correct checksum for the whole block (0x40 to 0x5F). The checksum is (255 – x) where x is the 8-bit summation of the BlockData() (0x40 through 0x5F) on a byte-by-byte basis.
  8. Send the BlockDataChecksum() (0x60) with the computed checksum from the previous step.
  9. Seal the fuel gauge.
