DellSMBIOS issue verifying current values

Hello,

In the Users Guide, it specifically states:

"Verify the current state of the attribute by running the following command:

Get-Item -Path . [See Format of the path.]

The command displays the Current Value, Possible Values and Description of the attribute you want to configure."

It also states to use the following code under the section I am interested in:

"Example: To retrieve the current mode of the PrimaryBattChargeCfg attribute.
Get-ChildItem -Path DellSmbios:\PowerManagement\PrimaryBattChargeCfg" 

 

But this does not return what I expected... 

The exact code I am using:

 

 

 

 $Setting = get-ChildItem -Path DellSMBIOS:\PowerManagement\PrimaryBattChargeCfg

 

 

...and the result I am getting??

 

 

> $Setting
Dell.Smbios.PowerShell.Providers.SmbiosAttribute

 

 

I was expecting "Custom" or "Auto" or any one of the available options...  any ideas what I may be missing?

I am using v2.6.0 of DellSMBIOS, with Powershell v5.1, on a Dell Precision 7510, Windows 10 20H2, with all the latest updates from SupportAssist installed.
