NI 9213 Conversion Speed ControlThe NI 9213 converts at two pre-defined rates, as controlled by the speed
control field.
Note The conversion rate assumes that 18 channels are in the scan list.
NI 9213 Common Mode Error/StatusThe error/status field is shown in Table 22.
NI 9213 Scan ListThe scan list contains channels to convert, in order. The NI 9213 has
eighteen measurable channels:
• 0..15: Sixteen thermocouple channels (always measured in a ±78 mV
range)
• 16: One cold junction channel (always measured in a ±2.5 V range)
• 17: One auto zero channel (always measured in a ±78 mV range)
