Will "ExceptionOnError = False" stop the Error 10846.

[Tarbaby]

I get a very intermittent Error -10846. If I put -
ExceptionOnError = False - in the code before the Configure statement, will it step the Error -10846 from happening? I can't find a way to test this as the error doesn't show up very often.

That's a LV error and it happens because you are not reading data from the PC buffer fast enough.

In order to prevent this error, you might increase the size of the background acquisition buffer (buffer size), increase the amount of data you read (scans to read), slow down your acquisition rate (scan rate), reduce the number of tasks your computer is performing, return binary data of your "AI Read.VI" (this is a polymorphic VI), or remove any extra processing that is inside the loop of "AI Read.VI".

Hello;

That error shows when you are not retrieving data fast enough from the memory, so data is being overflowed.

The only way to prevent that error to happen is start playing with the Data Acquisition parameters, such as Sample Rate, bytes to retrive from buffer per iteration, and buffer size.

Hope this helps.
