Configure a basic SA_PolarStar_6_Spoke symbol using InTouch tags

The basic configuration of the SA_PolarStar_6_Spoke symbol shows six spokes without labels or Alarm Border animation.

To configure a basic symbol, you need to assign attribute values to the SpokexPV and SpokexSP custom properties for each spoke.

Optional strings can be assigned to the symbol's spokes using the Substitute Strings feature.
