When the function niRFSA_ReadPowerSpectrumF64 times out, it returns an error code of 0xFFFA4E87 (-373113). niRFSA_error_message interprets the error code correctly ("The maximum time was exceeded before the operation completed"), but I was expecting a code of NIRFSA_ERROR_MAX_TIME_EXCEEDED (0xBFFA4002, -1074118654) instead, based on the values in niRFSAErrors.h, or possibly VI_ERROR_TMO (0xBFFF0015, -1073807339). I'm using version 15.0.0.49153 of niRFSA.dll.
Is there a list of the "real" error codes for the RFSA DLL available anywhere?

Unfortunately, I was not able to find a list of error codes for the RFSA driver and I am also not sure what you mean with "real" error codes.
May I ask, why you were exspecting an error from a different function? The error code you get looks correct for me in a time-out case.

It would be useful to know what error codes the various RFSA functions return. Am I right in thinking that the error codes in the file niRFSAErrors.h are not correct for the current version of the driver? If so, is there anywhere I can find the current codes?
When you say "The error code you get looks correct for me", where did you get that information from? That's the information I'm looking for.

I think, I understand you better now.
Every software/driver comes with it's own range of errors, specific for this part of the program. Upon that there are more generic error codes, which are used by several/all drivers. In the niRFSAErrors.h are only the RFSA errors specified.
The -373113 looks like a more generic error (different error code range than the ones in the RFSA) so I would exspect it to be specified at a different location. However, where this is I am not able to tell you - this can be everywhere on your computer and I cannot provide you with a complete list of all possible errors you might get.
My statement that the error code looks "correct" to me, was based on the fact, that you were expecting a time-out error and you got a time-out error.
