Frequently Asked Questions about Streaming Waveforms using NI-FGEN
Hardware: Signal Sources (AWG/FG/AO)
Problem: I receive Error -1074118518 or Error -1074118520 when I try to stream waveform data using NI-FGEN. What is causing these errors?
Solution: Error -1074118518

The NI-FGEN driver has a minimum required waveform size depending on your device. You can find this value in the specifications of your device. If you have selected a value that does not meet this minimum requirement, you will need to change the
Waveform Size value.
Error -1074118520

The NI-FGEN driver requires that the quotient of the
Waveform Size divided by the
Data Transfer Block Size be an integer value. That is, there cannot be a fractional number of data blocks in the waveform. If you have selected waveform size that is not an integer multiple of the block size you must change either the
Waveform Size or
Data Transfer Block Size value.
