Unable to set frequency on HP 33120A

Hi all,

 

First I appologize in advance  if this is in the wrong location or if this is a stupid question. I am new to lab view.

 

I am trying to work with an HP 33120A Arbitrary Waveform Generator. I have the driver loaded, I have the sample vi loaded in lab view. I am using LabView 16. I have the correct address for the ARB selected. I can see the ARB in MAX just fine. I am trying to use a Sine wave at 15Hz frequency and 50 mVpp amplitude.

 

When I try to set the Frequency to 15Hz it is not working. I have the frequency set in the controls on the front panel. The weird thing is, when I check the ARB before and after running the vi, the frequency is 15Hz. But when the vi is running it is always using 1KHz. Both the ARB display and the scope I have it connected to show the 1KHz when the vi is running.

 

What am I doing wrong?
