There more examples for the 435X that use the specific driver for the 435x. This is available at 435x Drivers and Updates page
This provides functions that are a little easier to understand and modify that the DAQ function call seen in the LabVIEW examples. Once you install the 435X driver, go a new VI and open the functions palette got Instrument I/O » Instrument Drivers » NI 435x » Examples » Getting Started with multiple transducers. This example will allow you to measure thermocouples and voltage.
That said I should let you know that, although the 435x has multiple ranges which affect the gains, only one gain is used per configured scan. For examp
le if you measure 10 V and then try and measure a thermocouple (mV levels) in the same scan, the device will select the higher range and gain and your thermocouple reading will not be accurate. If you must measure a wide range of voltages then you will need to scan them separately and reconfigure the range settings each time.
Good Luck,
