Samples Per Channel Matter when Taking Continous Samples?

So noob question of the day. I have been playing around with the lightbulb feature. Anyways, I notice my array size is greater than my samples per channel input. Does the DAQmx sample clock even look at the samples per channel input when set to continous?

Did you check the help file for the DAQmx sample clock function?

 

"samples per channel specifies the number of samples to acquire or generate for each channel in the task if sample mode is Finite Samples. If sample mode is Continuous Samples, NI-DAQmx uses this value to determine the buffer size."

It wasn't supposed to be a link.  I just copied and pasted from the help file.  It just do happens those words link to another part of the Help file called "How Is Buffer Size Determined?"
