reading filename.h5 in NCL

Hi everybody,
           I have to deal with hdf5 files (.h5 extension files), i am
familiar with using netcdf files and i tried to convert .h5 file using
function NCL_CONVERT2NC and it showing the error as shown in the following
lines. Somewhere i read hdf5 are not supported by NCL and my NCL version is
6.1.0. Kindly let me know whether it possible to convert hdf5 files to
netcdf files.
