Operating modes of the SM 331; AI 8 x 16 Bit:

● 4-channel mode
8-channel operating mode
In this mode, the module does not toggle between the two channels of each group. The four
analog-to-digital converters (ADC) of the module simultaneously convert channels 0, 2, 4
and 6. The ADCs first convert the channels with even numbers, then those with the odd
numbers 1, 3, 5 and 7 (see the figure below.)
