Support for this Method
You must set the source mode to Sequence in order to configure or export and import advanced sequences.
Configuration exports from sessions created with the independent channel NIDCPower constructor cannot be imported into sessions created with deprecated NIDCPower constructors.

Channel Mapping Behavior
When importing and exporting configurations between NI-DCPower sessions that were initialized with different channels, the configurations of the exporting channels are mapped to the importing channels based on the order you specify in the resourceName input to the independent channel NIDCPower constructor.
