Dear developer,

When i use alarmlist widget to display different status of alarms in my system, i find i can only set 3 different icons in the property of alarmlist like below picture:

But according to the BAM rules, we need to set at least 4 different icons to display the different levels of alarms and faults, so how can i achieve this goal? how to set more icons ? Or just use another widget?

Hi,

these pictures are used for displaying the alarm state, not for the severity / level of a alarm.  
You can use the alarm additional info properties for linking specific icons to alarms, and showing those icons with a alarmlistitem widget inside your alarm list.  
Please see here for more information about:
