Analog measurement specifications

16 single-ended (SE) or 8 differential (DIFF) terminals individually configurable for voltage, thermocouple, current loop, ratiometric, and period average measurements, using a 24-bit ADC. One channel at a time is measured.

1 Range overhead of ~5% on all ranges guarantees that full-scale values will not cause over range

2 Typical effective resolution (ER) in bits; computed from ratio of full-scale range to RMS resolution.

3 50/60 corresponds to rejection of 50 and 60 Hz ac power mains noise.

Accuracy (does not include sensor or measurement noise):

  • 0 to 40 °C: ±(0.04% of measurement + offset)
  • –40 to 70 °C: ±(0.06% of measurement + offset)

Measurement Settling Time: 20 µs to 600 ms; 500 µs default

Multiplexed Measurement Time:

These are not maximum speeds. Multiplexed denotes circuitry inside the data logger that switches signals into the ADC.

Where:

M = 1 (default)
M = 2 if reverse differential or measurement offset is used
Setup Time = 150 µs
