If a host is deleted with CX-Designer, the subsequent hosts will be renumbered in order. The example
below shows when HOST2 is deleted, the host numbers are renumbered and HOST3's number will be
changed to 2.
Before Deleting Host
Host Number

Please note that when a host number is given as argument h of WRITEHOSTB, it is necessary to specify the
host number after change. With the above example, please change the macro as follows.
Macro Before Deleting Host
Macro After Deleting Host
To check the host number, confirm the number at the left side of host name shown on the Comm.Setting
dialog of CX-Designer.
Also, note that if a host name is changed with CX-Designer when the host name is used as argument h of
WRITEHOSTB, it is necessary to specify the host name after change.
For example, if a host name is changed from HOST_1 to HOST_A, change as follows.
