Does someone know how to delete particular device from project list using script?

proj = projects.primary
dev = proj.find("Device", "EtherCAT_Master", "EK1100")[0]
dev.remove()

This only works if the device descriptions permit removing of that particular device - on other words, if you can delete it using the UI in the same situation.

For Slots, you can call the unplug() method.

Thank You,

Also, is there a way to move module in device tree up or down, using script?
My devices tree looks like this:
- CIFX_PB
- UR20_FBC_PB_DP
- UR20_8DO_P
- UR20_4DO_P

I was trying to run script:

proj = projects.primary
app = proj.active_application
onlineapp = online.create_online_application(app)

dev = proj.find("UR20_FBC_PB_DP", True)
obj = proj.find("UR20_4DO_P", True)
obj[0].move(dev[0],0)

but in response I have error: "This device cannot be added or inserted here"

If the device descriptions allow that movement, and the indices are set correctly, it should work that way. Actually, I did experiment a little bit, and it worked on my side.
