Note that this is a generic error message and this discussion refers only to a particular issue in MATLAB R2014a with some NI driver packages installing NI VISA 5.0, which had an issue with a missing header file (vpptypes.h).
The NI-SCOPE package 3.9.7 includes NI-VISA 5.0 which is missing a number of required header files.
Other packages which include NI-VISA 5.0 and may thus run into similar issues are:
- NI-DMM
- NI-DCPOWER
To resolve this issue please manually install the latest NI-VISA version (<http://www.ni.com/visa/>) after having installed NI-SCOPE, NI-DMM, or NI-DCPOWER.
If you see this error in a more recent MATLAB release it's probably caused by a different issue.
Note than NI VISA can be installed by a support package since R2015a (<https://www.mathworks.com/hardware-support/ni-visa-keysight-visa-tekvisa.html Instrument Control Toolbox Support Package for National Instruments VISA and ICP Interfaces>)
