Node-red control max input/out current for Orion Xs

I can turn the Orion XS charger ON/OFF with the /mode node in node-red; https://github.com/victronenergy/node-red-contrib-victron/wiki/Available-nodes

I can't find a way on how to set maxchargecurrent input setting though to do through node-red (only via victron connect bluetooth app?)

I know it can be done in a way through setting DVCC charge current, however that is then applying to also my MPPTs automatically and I dont want that. I just want to be able to control the MaxCurrent of the Orion. It is because I want to adjust it according to my alternator temperature... Is there a way to do it for the specific Orion device?

Resolved, you can use custom output node:
