Viewing and Editing Existing Icons

The icons which exist in the icon library can all be viewed and edited within Icon Editor >> Icon settings.

1. From the home screen, click on Icon Editor tile.
   
   
   
   
2. The icon library will be on the left and the icon settings will be on the right.
3. Select any of the existing icons and you will see the settings on the right. Each icon has a different appearance to represent different conditions that are supported by the hardware.
4. For example; select one of the door icons and you will see that 'Normal' is green (when the door is closed/secured), offline is yellow and a red-cross through it (NOTE: reader online/offline status events are only generated by NXT reader types), Alert is red (examples of alert states are when the door is forced or held open). Masked is blue (this is when door held/forced or both are masked).
5. The alert preview gives you an animated representation of how the icon will appear if the reader is set up to generate alerts (covered in a different chapter). You can slightly modify the alert state by selecting/deselecting the Opacity, Rotate and Scale options.
   
   
   
   
6. You can also double-click any of the seven status icons. Windows Explorer will then allow you to locate and select a replacement image.
7. Click the Save Icon button once you have finished editing.
