DAC121C085 && Odroid C2 Problem

Hello,

I have some problem with DAC121C085 Odroid C2 controlling.
I control two DAC's with using I2C bus (DAC1 slave addr = 0x48, DAC2 slave addr = 0x4e).
There is Python source code below. I use Smbus-library, for the generating onepolar-SIN analog sygnal on the DAC output pin (pin 6 of DAC121C085).
Analog sygnal, wich corresponded to this situation is represented in Fig.1.

When I changing row DAC1_sin_val=DAC_value_array[Time_count]
on DAC1_sin_val=DAC_value_array[Time_count]/4, I get analog sygnal wich is represented in Fig.2.

In the second case the volue of DAC's digital input sygnal are less then 256, and corresponds to the one-byte digital sygnal.
Thus, when I write one byte -signal in DAC I have success - I generate correct analog sygnal (one-polar SIN). But when I use more than one-byte input digital sygnal - I generate incorrect analog sygnal

So, it seems like I incorrect use bus1.write_word_data() - istruction.

What is the problem? How can I correct use bus1.write_word_data() - istruction?

Thanks
