Overview
The example is to demonstrate two ways of differentiating the gain of the multiple analog inputs of the DAQ Hardware

Description:
Leveraging the array function, we could assign different gains for each of the analog inputs of the DAQ Hardware. This method could be achieved by several ways

Steps to Implement or Execute Code:
To implement this example:

  1. Define the Physical Channels
  2. Set the value of the parameters as needed
  3. Run the VI
  4. (Optional) Turn on the Highlight Execution to see the flow of the VI

To execute this example:

  1. Install the required software.
  2. Connect the DAQ hardware that supports the AI features
  3. Confirm the connection with the MAX with TestPanel
  4. Open the VI and refer the Implement Steps


Requirements
Software
LabVIEW 2012 or compatible
NI-DAQmx 9.0 or compatible
