When I use the NI-DAQ ::DAQ_Op function, it sometimes return

[jdperroset]

me the error number -10847. The help description of this error is -1084 dmaChainingError New buffer information was not available at the time of the DMA chaining interrupt; DMA transfers will terminate at the end of the currently active transfer buffer.

Does somebody know how to evitate this error?

Thanks in advance

The help description of this error is -1084 dmaChainingError New buffer information was not available at the time of the DMA chaining interrupt; DMA transfers will terminate at the end of the currently active transfer buffer. I haven't seen the 10847 Error before and had to do some research to see anything related to it. The only reported incidents I saw had to do with ISA Windows hardware or Nubus Macintosh hardware. So the best I could suggest is:
1) Make sure that Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) works
2) See if your Data Acquisition Card passes the Test Resources test in MAX
3) Check your OS any DMA or other resource conflicts.
If those steps fail to show up anything, Let National Instruments know (www.ni.com/ask) what hardware and software you are using and we might be able to offer more suggestions.

I have a user getting this error message (-10847) intermittently. The function call is also DAQ_Op, called in a VB6 program.
The user is running W98 version 4.1(2222).
NIDAQ is 6.7.0
The card is a Lab-PC-1200.
It is the only NI device in the system.
Most of the time, the device works fine.
Because it is offsite, I don't have any more info than this.
