You can change the default icons for each alarm group and assign your own icons. To change an icon, replace the corresponding default picture file in the package. You can find the files in the Bmp subfolder of Monitoring PSIM's installation folder. The default path to the folder with pictures is C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Vhost\Bmp. For example, to change the icon for the Communication Channel group, replace two files:

  1. Bmp\Active\01_net_active.bmp;
  2. Bmp\InActive\01_net_inactive.bmp.

The size of icons is 33x23 pixels. If the size of your image is different, it will be changed to the above.

If the object scaling parameter exceeds 110% (see Configuring the Monitoring interface object), then the high-resolution icons of 172x120 pixels will be used on the object with the _hd postfix in the name.

So, for example, to replace the high-resolution icon corresponding to the Communication Channel group, it is necessary to replace two files:

  • Active\01_net_active_hd.bmp
  • InActive\01_net_inactive_hd.bmp

After you replace graphic files, restart Axxon PSIM. If at least one of the files is missing from the Bmp folder or has invalid format, the default icons are used.
