Symbor Editor can be used to create dynamic symbols that have different states
corresponding to the different signal values supported by the symbol. For example,
the symbol states of a breaker (open, close, intermediate and faulty) can be illustrated
in Symbol Editor with the help of drawing tools such as line, rectangle, ellipse, curve
or polyline. The symbol State value should match the signal Enum value. On the
LHMI the symbols are displayed according to the signal value and the matching
symbol state value. One of the states is always the default state. Symbols used in SLD
Editor show the default state graphics.
The symbol graphics are saved in .svg format and written to the IED. There are several
options for the symbol size: 1x1 (normal size), 1x2 (height is doubled), 2x1(width is
doubled) and 2x2 (both the height and width are doubled).
Custom symbols can be exported from the Graphical Display Editor and reused in
other projects.

Creating custom symbols

New symbols can only be created under the custom standard. The available options
are the category, size and states. At least one state should be selected when creating
any symbol.
Before creating a new custom symbol, check that the states and
category required for the new symbol are available by default.
Otherwise, it may be necessary to create new states or categories.
