The USB-6008/9 is reading around 1.4V in referenced single-ended (RSE) mode when no signal is connected. Is this expected?

Solution:
Yes, when there is no signal connected to the analog input of the USB-6008/9, a reading of around 1.4V in RSE mode is expected. This is due to the internal resistor network.
