Description
The robot name configured for the TCP/IP interface is illegal.
Remedy
Change the robot Hostname in the Host Comm TCP/IP screen to a legal name. A legal Hostname is a text string of characters drawn from the alphabet (A-Z, a-z), digits (0-9), and minus sign (-). No blank or space characters are permitted as part of a name, nor is the underscore character (_). The first character must be an alpha character. The last character must not be a minus sign.
