Can a Battery Balancer be Used Without BMV-702?

Hi, I have a 12v battery set-up (6 x 12v) that I want to convert to 24v. Looking at charts for the Battery Balancer in brochure I cannot figure out the setup. There is a chart with 1 Battery Balancer and 6 batteries in two groups, but it includes a BMV-702. Since I already have a BMV-700 to monitor my batteries, I am not really interested in buying a 702. Will I be able to set it up as in the chart with my BMV-700 instead? Anyone knows?

@joru, you don't need the -702 specifically, it's just used as an example.
With a BMV-702 you have the ability to measure the midpoint voltage, which the -700 doesn't offer, but that doesn't affect operation of the battery balancer.
