How to programmatically change the config search layer in eSearch?

I was wondering if it is possible to programmatically change the config search layer based on a condition being met. I know you can access a search layer by its name using:

this.config.layers.name === "Name of the Search Layer";

What I'm trying to do is set it to a particular search layer in my config. Any help programmatically changing this would be great.

Martin,

You can use the code below. Where X is equal to the index (number) of the layer you want to switch to (i.e first layer in the drop down is 0, etc, etc).

this.onAttributeLayerChange(X);‍
