Description
daqAdcRdScanN reads multiple scans from multiple A/D channels. This function will configure the pacer clock, arm the trigger and
acquire count scans consisting of each channel, starting with startChan and ending with endChan. The gain setting will be applied to
all channels. The freq parameter is used to set the acquisition frequency. See ADC Flags Definition table for channel flags parameter
definition.
