Current excitation outputs (Ix+)
The device has four current excitation outputs, with I1+/I1– dedicated to the CH0/CH1 analog inputs, I2+/I2–
dedicated to CH2/CH3, I3+/I3– dedicated to CH4/CH5, and I4+/I4– dedicated to CH6/CH7. The excitation
output currents should always be used in this dedicated configuration.
The current excitation outputs are automatically configured based on the sensor (thermistor or RTD) selected.
