Error -1947 When Running Swept Sine in the Sound & Vibration Toolkit

Problem:
I am getting error -1947 when running the example SVXMPL_Swept Sine FRF (DAQmx).vi (or other swept sine code). My application runs without error if I choose a smaller stop frequency for the sweep. Why am I unable to select higher values for the stop frequency, so long as they are below the Nyquist frequency?

Solution:
The SVT Start Swept Sine function (used in the SVXMPL_Swept Sine FRF(DAQmx) example), checks the requested stop frequency for swept sine FRF to ensure it is below the cutoff frequency of the anti-aliasing filter. This cutoff is defined as sampling rate/ 2.5.

The NI-446x has a maximum sampling rate of 204.8 kS/s. This implies a maximum alias-free bandwidth of 204.8 kS/s /2.5 =81.92 kHz. Therefore if you sample at the maximum rate, although the Nyquist frequency is 204.8 kHz/2=102.4 kHz, you can select a stop frequency up to 81.92 kHz.
