Hi,

When you are acquiring data from a thermocouple, all you are doing is acquiring a voltage and then converting that voltage into a temperature. You can connect your thermocouple in either Differential or RSE mode and everything should be fine. Here are links to tutorials about field wiring and thermocouple measurements:

Taking Thermocouple Temperature Measurements
