Description

GetLastCalDateAndTime in nidmm and GetLastExtCalLastDateAndTime and GetLastSelfCalLastDateAndTime in nidcpower have their "out" parameter labeled "month" when they, in fact, return a hightime.datetime object representing the date and time to a resolution of minutes.

Research direction

Locate the nidmm GetLastCalDateAndTime method and the two nidcpower calibration date/time methods, then inspect where their output parameter labels are defined. Verify that the labels describe the returned date-time value rather than a month, and run the relevant project checks or tests to confirm the correction.
