The generation has stopped to prevent the regeneration of old samples.

Hi. I have made a program where I am sending a sine signal into analog output on the MyDAQ. This output controls a motor and a log the data from analog input 0 and 1 (which are connected to some sensors). This works, but I want to configure the sampling rate to 40Hz per second. From the DAQ assistant VI that receives the inputs, I have "1 sample (on demand)". I tried putting this to N, where I configured "samples to read" =10 and "rate"=40. I honestly don't know what the the samples to read does. I also have a DAQ assistant for the output signal, and it seems like it interferes with the sampling. 

Please help me to get a better understanding of the configuration of the sampling in the DAQ assistant.

Thank you in advance!

I see there are some errors in my text.. Here is a fixed version:

Hello Kristaje,

Please see this forum where a similar question has been asked about the meaning of various DAQ Assitant functions:

I hope this will help!
