Alex, if I could I would. But the graphics and gauge code belong to my employer. Besides which the annunciator gauge is part of a massive "multi-gauge cluster."

On the other hand, I can offer you the graphics from a PDF I recently found, which is the "real deal." From that it would be a simple matter to create an XML version of the annunciator...

The dark, background image for the base of the gauge:

The lighted image of the gauge. Simply crop each annunciator rectangle and code the condition for the indicator as labled.

The annunciator follows the "all dark" paradigm. If all lights are dark, it is safe to takeoff!

The four "red" lights should set off the Master Alarm annunciator if lighted. The "yellow" lights will set off the Master Warn annunciator if lighted.

The two "white" indicators are simply "information" and won't set off any alarms! ;D

I'm ,..I'm :o Run Forrest !!!

Alex, here is an example of how I'd "crop" the lighted signs and then use them to overlay the background image.

First, crop out one of the signs from 0,0 (top left corner) to the bottom right corner of the sign you want. Here is the Cabin Altitude warning:

Note that everything is pure black (RGB:0,0,0) except for the lighted sign.

Then, after coding the gauge and the Cabin Altitude is greater than 10,000 and the pressurization system is not on then the CabinAlt sign will light up:

Here is another example. This time it is the R Fuel Level Lo warning sign:

After adding this new sign to the gauge, when the Right Fuel Level is Low, then the sign will light up!
