I am using PCI 6259 DAQ which only supports 16-bit ADC. Analog 2D DBL NChan NSamp vi gives a data output of 64-bit double array. Since I am wasting most of the bits and the memory, is there any way to get get a 16-bit floating point number? If not, how about 32-bit single-point precision? I know you can convert numbers between data types but converting a whole array of data in a real-time loop will probably cause a decrease in system performance.

NI DAQ-MX Read is polumorphic, try using the Unscaled data Nchannel N Data I16 Value if you want to scale data yourself.
