### Connection Failed

Failed to connect to robot: The robot appears to be offline right now. Kindly request the manager to reconnect it using “sudo systemctl restart theconstruct.rrl” and try again. Checking the robot’s logs with “sudo journalctl -f -u theconstruct.rrl” and “sudo husarnet status” also may help.
