RE: Interactive PyACI set Publication to address instead of address handle

Hi, thank you very much for your answer! I just wanted to inform you, that I solved this issue by using my own database (which knows the addresses) to set the publication addresses on the startup of the script to the DSM and on closing the script it removes them again.

Hi,

Sorry for the late response.

No, there is no simple way of doing this. The PyACI is designed this way because the Mesh stack itself works using the handles. Only the DSM module in the stack has the knowledge of the actual address values, all other modules rely on handles. Therefore, if you want to use a new address for publication, you must first add that address to DSM, get the desired handle, and then use that handle to change the publication setting. This is how the stack operates and that is how it is reflected in the PyACI.
