User FIR Filter Coefficient File Download Problems

Table 8-15 User FIR File Download Trouble - Symptoms and Causes

Symptom

Possible Cause

 

 

 

There is not enough memory available for the FIR coefficient file being

 

downloaded.

ERROR - 321, Out of memory

 

 

To solve the problem, either reduce the file size of the FIR file or delete

 

unnecessary files from memory.

 

 

 

User FIR filter has too many symbols.

ERROR - 223, Too much data

Real- Time cannot use a filter that has more than 64 symbols (512

 

symbols maximum for Arb). You may have specified an incorrect

 

oversample ratio in the filter table editor.

 

 

Data Requirements

Data must be in ASCII format.

Downloads must be in list format.

Filters containing more symbols than the hardware allows (64 for real- time and 512 for Arb) will not be selectable for the configuration.
