- Enter the iFIX node name prefix that you want the Startup Profile Manager to use when the Windows user name is invalid as a default iFIX node name.

Node names can include alphanumeric characters, but must begin with a letter. Special characters, such as symbols and punctuation marks, cannot be used.
For each startup profile using the default iFIX node name, a number is also added to the end of the default node name, starting with the number 1. For example, if you enter NODE as the prefix, the default iFIX node names used are: NODE1, NODE2, NODE3, and so on.
