Keysight DAQ970A/DAQ973A User's Guide
Description
The instrument continuously scans through all configured channels and performs measurements.
The instrument digitizes the signals of a single configured channel using the internal DMM.
The instrument digitizes up to 4 configured digitizer channels simultaneously for each DAQM909A plug-in
module inserted in the instrument using the DAQM909A's onboard digitizers. In other words, a maximum
of 12 configured channels can be digitize simultaneously when the DAQ970A/DAQ973A is installed with 3
DAQM909A plug-in modules. It can also operate in parallel to a
operation as it utilizes the DAQM909A's onboard digitizers instead of the instrument's internal DMM.
The
Digitizer softkey will only be available when the DAQM909A module is
inserted into the mainframe.
