Probably there is :-( Our trials do _not_ give what we want, and I have
no problems to believe you when you hint at us making some stupid
mistakes :-) Anyway, what we see is that we cannot combine continuous
acquisition with asking for an interrupt each fixed numbers of scans. Or
we get the interrupt as required but then the acquisition stops, or the
acquisuition continues but we get an interrupt after every scan...

Anyway, you've lost too much time on us by now. So, I thank you again,
and we will work until we solve the "problem"! Don't bother about us any
more (at least not with this questions :-)
