Problem with parameters in FSM

The following problem occured on 19/20-12-2007, during the ALICE cosmics run at P2. The TOF detector was the only one operated via ECS, therefore we are not able to cross-check with other PVSS projects.

In this example a string of 180 characters is accepted, while a string of 190 characters is not. Two screenshots of the error message are shown. The first is generated just after having received the long string; if you close the error dialog (in any way) you get the second error message.
