Q:

dSPACE ControlDesk error - No free memory available.[0.000]

When using a large sampling rate, no data could be measured (displayed yes but not plotted/stored) and I get the following error from the log file:
ControlDesk NG Platform:   Error   16:19:41    0,0:No free memory available.[0.000] (0xCA,1)
dSPACE used - RT1104
ControlDesk version - 5.5
Operating System details: 

A:

It is indeed coming from the Real-TimePlatform.
The memory depends on the number of measured signals, the raster speed and the dureation trigger length in the ControlDesk measurment configuration. On the hardware, a buffer is created to be able to hold one entire trigger shot, which may fail if it does not fit to the RAM.
Often a long trigger duration is used causing this problem. Then, the soultion is to measure continuously, which the user most of the time wants instead.
See http://www.dspace.com/faq?408
15kHz is quite fast for the ds1104, by the way, try with litte # of measurements if it works.
