I would sample them both at the higher frequency, then decimate the data for the slower channel.

A 9025 is a cRIO controller.  I don't think that is what you have.  Perhaps you meant a 9205, which is a 32 channel AI module.

 

All imputs from a single module will have to be read at the same rate.  If you want to run at different frequencies, you will need to have another module.  What I tend to do in similar situations is just read at the fastest rate needed and then just perform an average on the channels that should be at a slower rate.

I typically used Mean.vi (does not get any simpler than that).
