Configuring the display of elements on the map

To configure the display of elements on the map, do the following:

1. Go to the settings panel of the object corresponding to the required element.
   

2. From the Visual type drop-down list, select the set of element state icons: Common icons are icons of ACFA PSIM, Custom set is custom set of icons. You can create your own set of icons (see below). 

3. Set the Analog params checkbox if you want to display the value of an element in text form on the map.
4. Click the Apply button.

Creating custom icons

In ACFA PSIM, you can create your own icon sets. For this, do the following:

1. Run the ddi.exe utility (see Using the ddi.exe Tool to Work with DBI files).
2. Open the psim.acfa.opc_wrapper.ddi file located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Languages\ru\.

3. Manually add a custom set of icons to the Icons tab of the OPC DA ITEM object in the utility, naming it by analogy with existing sets:
   
   

4. Update the database structure using the idb.exe utility (see The idb.exe utility for converting databases, selecting database templates and making backup copies of databases).
5. The created set of icons will appear in the Visual type drop-down list on the settings panel of the OPC DA Item object.
   
   
6. Create icons for the custom set. Icons must be in PNG format with a size of 32x32 pixels. The name of the icon file includes: set name_state name, for example: da_item_cus_1_state1.png.
7. Add these icons to the folder located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Bmp.

As a result, a custom set of icons is created that you can use when working with the Map.
