ok. it works all the time if ive set data record from dma channel instead of 2nd fifo.
 however after a restart i have to redo this in smarterm or it switches back to 2nd fifo.
is there a command to burn the data record from dma to the control.?

just totally set up another pc to see if this was the case with another brand new 1750. same result
