Source and Sink are different type

The elements of the cluster in the arrays might be different…
Read the help for that VI to the right to learn about its datatypes!
This is excellent advice. I also often right click on the input terminal for the vi and select Create Constant, especially when the input is a cluster. This will create a constant with the desired structure for which I can replace the data (I like to use Bundle by Name and Unbundle by Name with clusters).

Source and sink
Remove the "built array" and replace the bundle node with "index and bundle cluster array".
(alternatively, you can also just place a FOR loop around the bundle node. Same thing!)

I agree that the message is a bit confusing, because they use the same words for source and sink, which is only half the story.
Both are 1D array of clusters of two elements in their own, very different way!
In more words:
- The source is a 1D array of cluster of two elements where the 1D array has only one element and the cluster contains two 1D arrays as element
- The sink is a 1D array of cluster of two elements where the 1D array has N elements and the cluster has two scalars.
Big difference!
