That sounds like it should be a setp, but it doesn't jump off of page 31 
at me. Looking at the analogin0, I'm seeing a flash of noise at about 1 
second intervals which I assume is the update rate.  And I don't 
currently have any setp's that seem to address the 7i76. Do I need to dl 
a fresh copy of the 7i76man.pdf?  I've had this one for 3, maybe 4 years.
