Data Acquisition Reference Design - Display data blinks zero

While trying to use the Data Acquisition Reference Design with NI-9178 and NI9205 module, I notice that if you display the data going to the channel monitor with a chart and show the digital display that the value keeps fickering between the value and zero. Anyone else noticed this and if so how do you fix it.

I'm not familiar with the reference design you speak of.  A copy of the VI to look at would be helpful.  But it sounds to me like the functions are in a loop and they occasionally do not get valid data and that is resulting in a default value of zero being displayed instead of a real value.  Are there any errors such as timeout errors being generated?

The Data Acquisition Reference Design provides a framework upon which you can build and expand a custom application.http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/11805

I can't get the basic design to read without showing a zero ever so often.
