ProgressiveRC 8 PowerLab - Manual (Page 62)

Balance connector wiring
When using FMA Wiring mode (Factory Default Setting)
The following diagrams shows how a 9 pin Cellpro (JST PA series) balance connector
(REVO PN CPBP9P-10-US) must be wired to an 8s, 7s, 6s, 5s, 4s, 3s, 2s, and 1s
battery pack when the PowerLab 8 is set to FMA Wiring mode (Factory default).
Whether the following is accomplished via the available adapters, or by physically
connecting (soldering) the 9 pin Cellpro pigtail to a battery pack directly, this is what the
PowerLab must see at its balance connector (output):
