What is dlErrorString?

This read-only DisplayString provides a detailed description of the error when dlOperStatus indicates downLoadCompleteError(5), and remains a zero-length string otherwise. An administrator reads this after a failed firmware download to get human-readable diagnostic detail about exactly what went wrong. For example, when a runtime download fails and dlOperStatus shows downLoadCompleteError(5), the admin reads this object to see a specific error description, such as a file-not-found message, to guide troubleshooting.
