Only 4 5v analog inputs and I need 5

I want to use 5 5V analog sensors on my DL1 but it only has 4 5V analog inputs. Is there any way to use a 5V sendor with one of the spare 12V analog inputs?

I realise this may well be a stupid question . . . but can I not just scale the 5V sensor reading by 12/5 to get a roughly accurate reading (using standard Dash1 equations)? Or is it not as simple as that?

You can use one of the 3 available 12v inputs without any issue.
In fact the MK2 DL1s have gone to all 12v inputs.
