Boy has this been a journey, But it seems right so im gonna go with it.
First attempt i hooked it up exactly as i was told above:
pin 1 -ve of cell 1 (main black wire also connected here)
pin 2 -ve of cell 2
pin 3 -ve of cell 3
pin 4 +ve of cell 3 (main red wire also connected here)
I just used 2 cells and NiMH and things were really screwy with the software, It read cell #1 at 1.3v and cell #7 at 2.6v
Of course the charger isnt gonna do anything with readings like that. So i started moving leads around as cell #7 was the issue, And that was the cell the red wire was connected to the final positive tab of the cells.
I took the red wire off and put lead #3 on there and hooked it up and it now read cell #1 @ 1.3v and cell #2 at 1.31v and was reading cell gap and performing like it should.
What i found also is the balance leads will read the cells and tell me if everything is hooked up correctly BEFORE i ever have to put the main power leads on.
Why my charger has to be different i have no clue, But it is.
This also explains why when i looked at the PCB board for all the differant cell count connecters plug into and it showed lead #9 (The red one) only being used with 7 cells. And the rest were wired is succession of 1,2,3,4,5(empty),6,7,8,9 (red).
So i guess from now on i start at the first negative with pin 1 and use them in order and red only gets used when i hit 7 cells.
I appreciate all the help guys as without it i would have had a clue on how to even attempt this, Let alone make an adjustment for this odd hookup.
Have a look for yourselves, She's runnin great!
