Error -50103 occured with timed loop inside a while loop

Question

Hello everyone,
i wrote an application to sample analog voltage from  DAQ6024E card (see the attachments).
I have a big while loop in the VI because a I want to add some other functions later.
In the "WHILE_Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Int Clk.vi" I use a while loop inside the big while loop to read the samples. It's working properly.
but when I use a timed loop inside the big while loop (see "TIMED_LOOP_Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Int Clk.vi"), I get an error -50103 from the timed loop.  It seems that the first cycle is ok, but after the first cycle the error occurs.
I don't know what happens with the timed loop, anyone can help me? what does the error -50103 mean? thanks a lot!
PS: I am using LabVIEW 8.0

hi molo511,
I tested your program but only with simulated devices. I had to delete the wire to the timing, so that the timed while loop runs with 1kHz. Did you already try this? Because this works on my PC.
I also found a link in our database that might be interesting for you.
