Describe the bug
resource.external_calibration_last_time and resource.current_temp not works for PXI-4309 card and provide exception
nisyscfg.errors.LibraryError: Status.PROP_DOES_NOT_EXIST:
Error: return self._type_property.get(instance._property_accessor)
As I remember, it was functional for one of previous
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. install NIDAQmx device driver and MAX Config 22.5
2. install nisyscfg 0.0.5 release
3. connect chassis with installed PXIe-4309 and chassis with PXI-6284
4. run the following:
   nisystem_resource = []
   with nisyscfg.Session() as session:
   filter = session.create_filter()
   filter.is_present = True
   filter.is_ni_product = True
   for resource in session.find_hardware(filter):
   if resource.is_device:
   nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.expert_user_alias[0]))
   nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.serial_number))
   nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.external_calibration_last_time))
   nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.current_temp))
   if resource.is_chassis:
   nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.expert_user_alias[0]))
   pass
   return nisystem_resource

Describe the bug
The README shows this example:

>>> import nisyscfg
>>> with nisyscfg.Session() as session:
>>>     # Print user aliases for all National Instruments devices in the local system
>>>     filter = session.create_filter()
>>>     filter.is_present = True
>>>     filter.is_in_product = True
>>>     filter.is_device = True
>>>     for resource in session.find_hardware(filter):
>>>         print(resource.expert_user_alias[0])

I searched the code for "is_in_product" because I wasn't familiar with that property, but I couldn't find anything.
I think it's supposed to be "is_ni_product".

I use the following code to collect Slot_names, SN , last calibration date and current temperature for PXIe-1092 chassis with 5 mounted PXIe-4309 slots:
nisystem_resource = []
with nisyscfg.Session() as session:
filter = session.create_filter()
filter.is_present = True
filter.is_ni_product = True
for resource in session.find_hardware(filter):
if resource.is_device:
nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.expert_user_alias[0]))
nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.serial_number))
#nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.external_calibration_last_time))
#nisystem_resource.append(str(resource.current_temp))
print (nisystem_resource)
The query cannot separate 4309 card from TB MT adapter and MXI card. As result resource.current_temp and resource.external_calibration_last_time crashes with exception nisyscfg.errors.LibraryError: Status.PROP_DOES_NOT_EXIST:

output example for the print (nisystem_resource):
['PXI1Slot5', '01D80D59', 'Dev1', '01D73EF9', 'PXI1Slot2', '01D73F07', 'TB-4309 (MT)/PXI1Slot2/0', '01CF4765', 'PXI1Slot3', '01D80D54', 'TB-4309 (MT)/PXI1Slot3/0', '01E60B0B', 'PXI1Slot4', '01D80D5F', 'TB-4309 (MT)/PXI1Slot4/0', '01E60B0C', 'MXI1', '', 'PXIChassis1', '31CFB9B', 'PXI1Slot1', '31C6BB9']

Used nisyscfg is rev 0.0.4

Hello,

Thanks for a very useful project. What do you think about uploading it to PyPI?

Describe the bug
Hello,

i am using NISYSCFG 0.0.4 release in the following python script to collect info for installed NI SW:
import nisyscfg
host="localhost"
with nisyscfg.Session(target=host) as session:
for component in session.get_installed_software_components():
print(component.title, component.version)

component.version return string some HEX data (for example -0+f138). See below the collected example.
how to filter this unused HEX data?

thanks,
Nahum

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This API looks pretty awesome, but the self_calibrate function appears to be missing.

It's available in the LabVIEW API for hardware resources, but I don't see it anywhere in this API.

Dear Tyler Krehbiel,

as author in setup.py national instruments is stated. is this correct? A ni email address is given as your email maintainer address but the project is not hosted on the official ni GitHub page. (https://github.com/ni)

Can you give some background on authorship/ownership of the code?

Thanks in advance,
Franz

Hi Tyler,

please advice, if have resource.pxi API to activate blinking LED (yellow or red if possible) on PXIe-1092 chassis front panel when
detected PXIe-4309 card's overheat

thanks and best regards!!
Nahum

we use nisyscfg-python to remotely collect information about PXIe-1092 chassis fans, cooling profiles, and PXIe-4309 cards temperatures. it is a simple and effective solution for automatically detecting and alerting NI systems requiring immediate service or support.
Is it possible to add to the same nisyscfg API the ability to control these fans and configure colling profiling?

thanks and best regards,
Nahum

Hello tkrebes, thanks a lot for the work that you have put into this. I have tried using the nisyscfg-python both in Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20.04 with the kernel 5.13. However, some of the functions I have written have caused crashes in Ubuntu.

I am trying the function below on a cRIO-9049

def get_sw_and_feeds(target_name: str,username: str,password: str):
    print("Trying to connect to target: " + target_name)
    with nisyscfg.Session(target=target_name,username=username,password=password) as session: 
        print("Succesfully connected to target: " + str(session.resource.name))
        print("Available Software feeds:")
        for software_feed in session.get_software_feeds():
            print("\t"+str(software_feed))
        print("Installed Software:")
        print("\t Software Title\tVersion")
        for software in session.get_installed_software_components():
            print("\t" + str(software.title) + "\t" + str(software.version))
        print("Closing Session")
        session.close()

I get this response on Windows:

Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi tkrebes, thanks for all the work you have put into this. I am writing a simple function to get the network configuration of a remote target. The code I have is:

The target is a cRIO-9049 and I am running the code on a Windows 10 machine. My function looks like this:

def get_network_settings(target_name: str,username: str,password: str):
    nisystem_resource = {}
    print("Trying to connect to target: " + target_name)
    with nisyscfg.Session(target=target_name,username=username,password=password) as session: 
        print("Succesfully connected to target: " + str(session.resource.name))
        print("session.resource dir: " + str(dir(session.resource)) + "\n\n")
        nisystem_resource['serial_number'] = str(session.resource.serial_number)
        nisystem_resource['tcp_ip_v4_address'] = str(session.resource.tcp_ip_v4_address)
        nisystem_resource['tcp_ip_v4_subnet'] = str(session.resource.tcp_ip_v4_subnet)
        nisystem_resource['tcp_ip_v4_gateway'] = str(session.resource.tcp_ip_v4_gateway)
        nisystem_resource['tcp_ip_v4_dns_server'] = str(session.resource.tcp_ip_v4_dns_server)
        print(nisystem_resource)
        print("Closing Session")
        session.close()

It seems that I am having trouble accessing the properties of the hardware resource, I also tried using this
format session.resource.get_property()

However, in both cases, I got this error: Status.PROP_DOES_NOT_EXIST

I wanted to read the properties first and after being successful I wanted to try to modify them. Ia m referencing the properties here: Properties.py

Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance for your help.
