Analog Input Channels

The DT9828 module supports eight differential analog input channels. You can use the analog
input channels for thermocouple or voltage measurements. You wire these inputs to the screw
terminals on the module. Refer to
You can attach one of the following thermocouple types to each analog input channel: J, K, T,
B, E, N, R, and/or S. If desired, you can attach a voltage input to each analog input channel
instead.
You can specify the thermocouple types for channels using software.
