Digital Pattern Throws Edge Multiplier error when called from TestStand

Hello,

I have a pretty simple digital pattern that captures 1000 samples of data. This pattern seems to run fine from the digital pattern editor. However, when I call the pattern using the C# method NiDigital.PatternControl.BurstPattern, via TestStand, I get an edge multiplier error (attached). I have only configured 1x edge multipliers for the pins involved and haven't intentionally done anything else with edge multipliers. As far as I can tell the proper timing sheet is applied during TestStand operation.

You cannot drive off right at 0, there are minimum edge placement requirements.

You need at least 5ns separation between Drive On and Off

Hi Santhosh,

I appreciate the reply, but I don't think that is the cause of this issue--as I mentioned this pattern *does* run in the digital pattern editor, just not when called from TestStand. Also, I have also run patterns in the past successfully that had drive on and drive off set to 0.

Thanks,

Jppb

Could you please attach the files for review? The error snippets just don't tell much.
