Hello, I have a question about the DNP3.0 prtocol control using the Ignition driver. I have a Front-End and IO server. On the IO server I place connections and drivers. However, the control is done using the function assigned in the Front-End interface. To execute the control, I need to define the device name: `system.dnp3.directOperateBinary(deviceName, indexes, opType, tcCode, count, onTime, offTime)` However, Foronetend does not see this device. How to define it in a way that references the Remote Gateway where the urn is added. Is there any other way? Greetings, Michal Goralczyk ---

`system.util.sendMessage` can send messages to other gateways. You would need to set up a message handler in the IO gateway that uses the scripting function, and then use `sendMessage` from the front end.
