METHODS FOR DATA MONITORING WITH CHANGEABLE ROUTING OF INPUT CHANNELS

Methods for data monitoring with changeable routing of input channels are disclosed. An example method includes a data collector communicatively coupled to a plurality of input channels and a data acquisition circuit to interpret the detection values, each corresponding to an input channel.
