How to represent passive devices

Predefined business objects can have states and alarms. When these objects do not have an object state set, they are considered to be passive devices. This information can be graphically represented by the passive icon. The following CSS extract shows how you can customize the predefined business objects to show this icon when the object does not have an object state:

object."ilog.tgo.model.IltObject" {

passiveIconVisible: true;

}

object."ilog.tgo.model.IltObject"[objectState] {

passiveIconVisible: false;

}
