- [Instructor] To expand the previous example, which acquired data on one channel, to instead acquire analog input data on multiple channels, I can click on the dropdown button of the control to select physical channels, select Browse, and this brings up a menu to select the analog input channels. If I hold down the Control key, I can select multiple channels at once and click OK. You can now see in the text box here that it indicates I'll use those three consecutive channels, zero, one, and two. As an alternative to using the selection menu like that, I can also just type in the names of the channels I want to use directly into this control. If I change that two to a one, now I'll only be measuring on two channels, AI zero and AI one. I currently have two signal sources, one producing a sine wave, which is connected with differential input to channel AI zero and another producing a square wave connected to channel one.…
