How to change the rack visualization type using code?

Hello, I am interested in changing the rack visualization type from "Rack" to "Wireframe" using code instead of the Properties window in the GUI. I see in the model tree that the rack node has a variable called "visualization" that is set to "/Tools/StorageSystem>variables/visualizations/Rack" but I am uncertain how to change this to "Tools/StorageSystem>variables/visualizations/Wireframe". Please let me know if there is a way to do this using code. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Software Version:

FlexSim 20.0.9
