The reason is that you are using the wrong “voltage range” for the Reason dSPACE system! dSPACE boards have an input range of ±10 V and you are looking at signals with a voltage range of a few mV. That is similar to using a ruler to measure 1/1,000 inches.
To handle the voltages and currents from a car battery, the boxes are supplied with a special power supply. If noise seems to be a problem for your dSPACE boards installed in the AutoBox/Tandem-AutoBox, you should consider the information in this chapter.

Currents on the signal line and the signal return line should ideally cancel each other out. The signal return (ground) lines of the dSPACE boards are connected to ground of the backplane, which is isolated from car battery ground.
The operating voltage has only minor impact. A mains‑operated PWM power supply with a similar input current would supply several KW output power and would generate a similar amount of noise. DS1103 Hardware Installation and Configuration November 2014...
High‑current components usually have poor RF characteristics, so damping at high frequencies is low. To electronic circuits (e.g. dSPACE I/O boards) mounted in the AutoBox/Tandem-AutoBox, the switching noise appears as common mode noise. It is not recognized.
