Extension capability not supported by instrument(Temperature)

I am using IVI driver to communicate to Keithley 2750  and read temperature from thermocouple,Type-K sensor.

I get an error -30717 (Extension capability not supported by Instrument(Temperature) when trying to read temperature.

 

I am able to read voltage,current and resistance directly by configuring IVI DMM from NI TestStand.

 

Please not that I have configured instrument for measuring voltage,current and resistance successfully. So I believe the initial set up and configuration are alright.

 

However I am not sure if this error is because of me not configuring the IVI step in correct order. I have attached screenshots of step configuration that I do.

 

Please provide any suggestions.

 

I have already posted this issue in Keithley forums. I have not heard from them yet.

 

Please find screenshots attached.

Please find the link for driver that I am using here: http://www.keithley.com/support/data?asset=52764

 

Thanks

Temperature is not one of the base functions of a DMM class so the IVI, foundation added extended capabilites to the class. Assumimg that instrument itself supports a temperature measurement, it looks to me that there is a bug in the driver from Keithley.

Thank you

 

The instrument supports temperature measurement. Because of this error,I ended up writing a function in C# to read temperature and it works !!

However I wanted to know if I was doing anything wrong. Thanks again
