Can I use a USB-TC01 to measure voltage?

I am looking for a low-cost way to measure 0-30mV, and it looks like a NI USB-TC01 might be able to do this.  Can you set these up as standard AI lines?  Or can you only set them up to read temperatures.

 

Thanks.

I don't have one right now, so I can't say for sure, but I'm pretty sure you can do this.

 

It shows up just like any normal m-series DAQ device in MAX under devices and interfaces.  You can then create a virtual channel like you normally would to take an analog measurement off a thermocouple.  But I'm pretty sure you can just choose to take an analog voltage measurement off of the same channel.
