Why does it seem so difficult to find error codes?

Nobody pays membership to these forums or this site.

The error you describe looks as if it was used by the developer of the driver.  NI has no way to go out and get everyone's errors.  The list is LabVIEW's errors.  Toolkits, etc. will have their own list of errors, which you need to go to the manufacturer to get, whether it be NI or someone else.

Error numbers can be reused, since there are gaps for people to use for their own development.

FOr your specific error, I would guess the ID string coming back from the instrument doesn't match what the driver programmer expects.

In this case, the error codes are defined by IVI (www.ivifoundation.org).

It should be noted that a list of error codes for LabVIEW 2011 no longer show up directly under the LabVIEW Help search topic "error codes, range of". Click the "Locate" icon from this page or navigate the LabVIEW contents to....
