R input mode is software configurable. The
input channels support three input modes—differential (DIFF), referenced
single ended (RSE), and nonreferenced single ended (NRSE). The selected
input mode applies to all the input channels. Table 2-2 describes the three
input modes.

R is configured in DIFF input mode, each
channel uses two AI lines. The positive input pin connects to the positive terminal
of the onboard instrumentation amplifier. The negative input pin connects to the
negative input of the instrumentation amplifier.
RSE

R is configured in RSE input mode, each
channel uses only its positive AI pin. This pin connects to the positive terminal
of the onboard instrumentation amplifier. The negative input of the
instrumentation amplifier connects internally to the AI ground (AIGND).
NRSE
When the NI 783

R is configured in NRSE input mode, each
channel uses only its positive AI pin. This pin connects to the positive terminal
of the onboard instrumentation amplifier. The negative input of the
instrumentation amplifier on each AI channel connects internally to the
AISENSE input pin.
