Device configuration status code 40

Message: Adding this device would exceed the maximum allowed

Explanation: On a request to add a robot to the device configuration, the licensed limit for the maximum number of robots was reached on the targeted host.

Recommended Action: Check the product documentation for the supported device configurations. Obtain an additional software license that allows more robots to be configured, or limit the configuration to the number of robots that the current licensing allows.
