Description

In NI-SCOPE's meas_filter_type documentation, the allowed values should reference the FIlterTypes enum, which is correctly generated in the code, but the documentation instead shows non-substituted values such as "~niscope.NISCOPE_VAL_MEAS_LOWPASS".

Research direction

The issue identifies NI-SCOPE's meas_filter_type documentation and the generated FIlterTypes enum; start by locating those generated outputs and the code-generation path that produces the attribute docs. Compare the documentation's substituted values with the enum, and consider the work done when the docs reference the enum values rather than literal ~niscope... names.
