Issue Details

When setting up a power supply or a source measure unit (SMU) or programming with NI-DCPower in LabVIEW or LabWindows™/CVI, I get Error -1074135023: IVI: Function or method not supported. For example, if I try to enable the attribute NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OVP_ENABLED on a PXI-4110, I get the error below.

Solution

This error shows up because your hardware does not support setting the attribute, function, method, or value that you are trying to configure using NI-DCPower.
 
You can verify the Functions and the Attributes supported by your Device by opening the driver's help page: Help » NI DC Power Supplies and SMUs Help, then navigating to either one of these paths:
 
  • Programming with NI-DCPower » NI-DCPower Function Reference » Functions » Supported Functions by Device.
  • NI-DCPower » NI-DCPower Function Reference » Attributes » Supported Attributes by Device.
 
 

Additional Information

For example, you can confirm that the PXI-4110 does not support enabling the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OVP_ENABLED attribute.
