Error Conditions - Data Translation DT9837A User Manual

Error Conditions

The DT9837, DT9837A, and DT9837C modules report any underrun errors by sending an
underrun event to the application. This event indicates that the data buffers are not being sent
from the host to the module fast enough, and the D/A converter ran out of data. To avoid this
error, try one or more of the following:
• Reduce the clock rate of the analog output operation
• For the DT9837, ensure that you allocate a single buffer with 8192 or fewer samples
• Close any other applications that are running
• Run the program on a faster computer
