Equipment Label Character Limitations
Equipment labels are limited to a maximum of 10 bytes. If the equipment label
exceeds the 10 byte maximum, the label assignment process will fail.
• UTF-8 encoded characters may use 1-4 bytes depending on the language.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8)
• The first 128 Unicode characters (which corresponds directly to the ASCII
character set) take only 1 byte.
• Example: Tele1 (English) is 5 bytes long.
• If you use special characters, more bytes are required.
