pynetdicom.pdu_primitives.ImplementationClassUIDNotification

class pynetdicom.pdu_primitives.ImplementationClassUIDNotification

A representation of a Implementation Class UID 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 Class UID is required during association negotiation and there must only be a single ImplementationClassUIDNotification item.

implementation_class_uid

The UID to use.

Type

pydicom.uid.UID, bytes or str

Examples

>>> from pynetdicom.pdu_primitives import (
...     ImplementationClassUIDNotification
... )
>>> item = ImplementationClassUIDNotification()
>>> item.implementation_class_uid = '1.2.3.4'
