AM16/32B Relay Analog Multiplexer
Multiplexer to Datalogger Wiring — The two pairs of COM terminals (ODD
H, ODD L and EVEN H, EVEN L) are connected to two pairs of differential
analog inputs at the datalogger. Observe H to H and L to L from sensor to

With pan
set to “2x32” mode, one differential input can measure up to
32 differential sensors in SETs of two with appropriate programming.

Because
ound may be multiplexed in common, up to two
sensors per SET may be measured (FIGURE 6-4). If measured excitation is
required (as in four wire half-bridge), then only one sensor per SET of four
may be measured (FIGURE 6-5).
6.3.1 Half Bridge Measurement with Completion Resistor at Datalogger
Sensor to Multiplexer Wiring — Up to three half bridges may be connected to
one input SET in “4x16” mode, provided the sensors’ three completion
resistors are located at the datalogger (FIGURE 6-3).
Multiplex
gger Wiring — Signal lines from the multiplexer COM
terminals tie to three consecutive single-ended analog input channels. Three
precision completion resistors connect from analog input channels to analog
ground i
xer to analog input. In “4x16” mode up to 32 differential sensors can
red by two differential datalogger channels in this way.

meters), then excitation, wiper signal, and ground must be multiplex
