Channels 0-7 on module 2 and
channels 5-12 on module 4 of chassis
1 are read through onboard channel 0.

Channels 3 and 4 of module 3 of
chassis 1 are read through onboard

In the parallel mode, each analog input SCXI module is connected
directly to a DAQ device and you must specify the channels of your
DAQ device in the channel list, not the SCXI channel string.
Note:
The SCXI-1200 does not support the parallel mode with other SCXI
modules.
