FlexMotion 6.1 Read Buffer is buggy.

FlexMotion 6.1 has introduced a bug into the Read Buffer function. I use a position buffer to transfer data into an onboard program. When the onboard program calls Read Buffer with a particular variable number, n, as the return vector, then I end up with the actual result in n+2, plus n and n+1 are overwritten (I think with 1 and 0 respectively). Sounds like a job for NI's engineers.

Hi, David,

Thank you for contacting National Instruments.

I would be happy to look into this issue further. Can you please provide an example VI that demonstrates the behavior you are seeing?

Thank you!

Attachment should demonstrate the bug, but I'm writing from home and don't have the hardware to verify that it does demonstrate the bug.
