pynetdicom.pdu_primitives.ImplementationVersionNameNotification

class pynetdicom.pdu_primitives.ImplementationVersionNameNotification

A representation of a Implementation Version Name Notification primitive.

The implementation identification notification allows implementations of communicating AEs to identify each other at Association establishment time. It is intended to provider respective and non-ambiguous identification in the event of communication problems encountered between two nodes. This negotiation is required.

Implementation identification relies on two pieces of information:

• Implementation Class UID (required)
• Implementation Version Name (optional)

The Implementation Version Name is optional and there may only be a single ImplementationVersionName item

implementation_version_name

The version name to use, maximum of 16 characters

Type:str or bytes

Examples

>>> from pynetdicom.pdu_primitives import ImplementationVersionNameNotification
>>> item = ImplementationVersionNameNotification()
>>> item.implementation_version_name = b'SOME_NAME'
