Use the following guidelines to set up the equipment:
  1. Set power supply #1 (PS#1) for 20V ±100mVDC, with the current limit set to > 5A. Turn off supply.
  2. Connect PS#1 output in series with a current meter (multimeter) to J2 (VIN, GND)
  3. Connect a voltage meter across J2 (VIN, GND)
  4. Connect a voltage meter across J3 (BAT, GND)
  5. Connect a voltage meter across J1 (SYS, GND)
  6. Make sure the jumpers are installed as indicated in IO and Jumper Descriptions.
  7. For SMBus Communication, use the following steps:
    1. Connect J6 to the EV2400. Connect J5 to theSMB PORT 1 on the EV2400
    2. Turn on the computer and PS#1. Open the bqStudio software.
    3. Select Charger and click the Next button.
