3.5 Host Registration
Registering a host means that the communication settings of any host unit must be
added to the NS-Designer project. Host Unit can be e.g. Programmable Logic
Controller (PLC) or Bar-Code Reader. Each entry must have an unique Host Name
which can be used later in screen creation procedure. So the Host Name specifies
the PLC name of communication destination.
