The differential input mode can measure
±
20 V signals in the
±
20 V range.
However, the maximum voltage on any one pin is
±
10 V with respect to
GND. For example, if AI 1 is
+
10 V and AI 5 is –10 V, then the
measurement returned from the device is
+
20 V.
Figure 8.
Example of a Differential 20 V Measurement
Connecting a signal greater than
±
10 V on either pin results in a clipped
output.

Exceeding
±
10 V on AI Returns Clipped Output
