Write Waveform From File Example

I'm trying to read a *.bin signed Int16 waveform file created in MATLAB into LabView to generate the signal on a PXI-5421 ARB.  The "Write Waveform From File" example included in LabView seems to do exactly what I want to do.  However the output AM double sideband suppressed carrier spacing is only 1/4 of what I would expect (1kHz when it should be 4kHz, 2kHz when I expect 8kHz...).

 

The example program reads the chirp example in chunks however I'd just like to load the entire .bin file at once.  Are there any suggestions as to why the output spacing appears to be a quarter of what I expect it to be?

 

Thanks.

Figured out the solution - there was an IQ Rate issue;  the RFSG will only accept 50 or 100MHz for the IQ Rate setting it appears.

 

Feel free to delete this if necessary.
