Is it possible to "Go To Hardware" from my plugin results?

I am very much a novice with Milestone development and also a novice with C# itself but I have made a “Find Camera” tool of sorts based on a sample application (ConfigDump) from the Milestone SDK.

The resulting output is written to a listbox and shows the camera name, the server, and the hardware.

Since the search results may find more than one camera matching the search criteria, there may be multiple results listed.

Ideally, I would like to present the information in a way that I could go right from the search results to the entry in Milestone. Much like when you right-click a camera name in a device group and select the option to “Go To Hardware”.

I don’t know if that is possible or not. I certainly don’t know how to do it and wondered if someone might be able to offer some suggestions.

Thanks

You might get an inspiration when you explore ConfigAPI Client,

https://doc.developer.milestonesys.com/html/index.html?base=samples/componentsamples/configapiclient/readme.html&tree=tree_2.html

In the sample, you will get an information of Recording Server first, then Hardware and then camera. You might want to utilize this sample in an opposite order.
