```cpp
int _stdcall icsneoSetVCANRFSettings(void * hObject, SVCANRFSettings *pSettings, int iNumBytes, int bSaveToEEPROM);
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Visual Basic .NET Declare" %}

```vbnet
Public Declare Function icsneoSetVCANRFSettings Lib “icsneo40.dll” (ByVal hObject As IntPtr, ByRef pSettings As SVCANRFSettings, ByVal iNumBytes As Int32, ByVal bSaveToEEPROM As Int32) As Int32

```csharp

```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

**Parameters**

hObject

\[in] Specifies the driver object created by [OpenNeoDevice](https://docs.intrepidcs.com/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/basic-functions-overview-intrepidcs-api/openneodevice-method-intrepidcs-api).

pSettings

\[in] The address of an allocated [SVCANRFSettings](https://docs.intrepidcs.com/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/structures-types-and-defines-overview-intrepidcs-api/setting-structures-overview-intrepidcs-api/svcanrfsettings-structure) structure.

iNumBytes

\[in] This value is always the size, in bytes, of the [SVCANRFSettings](https://docs.intrepidcs.com/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/structures-types-and-defines-overview-intrepidcs-api/setting-structures-overview-intrepidcs-api/svcanrfsettings-structure) structure.

bSaveToEEPROM

\[in] If set to 0, the settings changes will revert to the values stored in EEPROM when the ValueCAN RF is power-cycled. If set to 1, the values will overwrite the EEPROM settings and become persistent across power-cycles of the ValueCAN RF.

**Return Values**

Returns 1 if successful, 0 if an error occurred. [GetLastAPIError](https://docs.intrepidcs.com/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/error-functions-overview-intrepidcs-api/getlastapierror-method-intrepidcs-api) must be called to obtain the specific error. The errors that can be generated by this function are:

NEOVI\_ERROR\_DLL\_NEOVI\_NO\_RESPONSE = 75

**Remarks**

Before using this function, the [SVCANRFSettings](https://docs.intrepidcs.com/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/structures-types-and-defines-overview-intrepidcs-api/setting-structures-overview-intrepidcs-api/svcanrfsettings-structure) structure must be initialized with the current neoVI settings using [GetVCANRFSettings](https://docs.intrepidcs.com/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/device-settings-functions-overview-intrepidcs-api/valuecan-rf-intrepidcs-api/getvcanrfsettings-method-intrepidcs-api).
