Multichannel analog output Python NiDaqmx

Hi,

I am trying to generate two analog output signals using the write function of the NiDaqmx package for python. However when passing a 2D array as output array I get the following error:

"

nidaqmx.errors.DaqError: Write cannot be performed because the NumPy array passed into this function is not shaped correctly. You must pass in a NumPy array of the correct number of dimensions based on the write method you use.

No. of dimensions of NumPy Array provided: 2

No. of dimensions of NumPy Array required: 1

"

In the example below outputX and outputY are two equally sized 1 dimensional arrays. I tried multiple ways of generating a 2D array but none of them seems to solve the error. If I compare the data type of this array it is the same as the one they use in the 

I already looked at the documentation but still haven't found a solution yet.

Help is much appreciated,

With kind regards,
