RMS and Mean Channels May Lose Synchronization With Their Data Source Channels

RMS and Mean channels may lose synchronization with their data source channels when the sample rate of the data source channels is modified. Both the start time (t0) and time step (dt) of the RMS and Mean channels may still be based off the old sample rate. This is noticeable in graphs on the screen and in any log files.

Workaround:

Save, close, and re-open the project.
