Multi Channel ADC with DMA on a NUCLEO H753ZIT6

[LopsidedCoder]

I'm just getting started with STM32 microcontrollers and I have been using the NUCLEO H753ZIT6. I was trying to learn how to use multiple channels of ADC's with DMA. I was able to get some data when I used a single channel ADC normally. But now I'm not even able to get any data when I put the ADC data storing array in the "Live Expressions" tab. I have also tried to use timers to make the ADC conversions happen at a frequency of 10Hz. I have attached images of how I've setup the ADC and Timer. My timer configuration has a prescaler of 64000-1 because the Timer clock is running at 64 MHz. My ADC is running at a clock of 40 MHz because I thought if its less then it may work. I have also tried the "Continuous Conversion Mode" in the ADC setting and the "Circular mode" in the DMA setting but none of them work. This is my main.c file:

Hello @LopsidedCoder and welcome to the community,

Better to attach your ioc file instead of posting the screenshots of your configs and may be better to post a sketch of what do you want to achieve.
