Issue Details

I am seeing a lot of duplicated values in the TDMS file generated by Instrument Studio. Is this expected behaviour?

Solution

This is expected behaviour. This behaviour is known as quantization. You will observe similar behaviour in the TDMS file generated by other NI input-based modules using Instrument Studio.
