Can you simultaneous sample multiple SCXI-1520 cards in multiplexed mode?

Can you simultaneous sample multiple SCXI-1520 cards in multiplexed mode?
 
In parallel mode, you can have all channels sampled and held, and then have each

of your E or M series cards multiplex through each of the 8 channels of each card.

This yields simultaneous sampling on all channels at a faster rate in this "SCXI-1520

Parallel Mode" than you can derive from the "SCXI-1520 Multiplexed Mode."
 
Does the "SCXI-1520 Multiplexed Mode" also provide the capability to Simultaneous

Sample and Hold, all be it at a slower net throughput yield then the "SCXI-1520 Multiplexed Mode?"

Hello,

Thank  you for posting to the NI Forums! The SCXI-1520 User Manual does indicate the Simultaneous Sample and Hold can be used with Multiplexed Mode. Please refer to the last two paragraphs of page 69 and the first paragraph of page 70 for a better explanation. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions!
