If the valve is a switching valve, press On to place the valve in the clockwise (CW) position or Off to place the valve in counterclockwise (CCW) position.

The display changes to reflect the current valve state.

The default conditions of a switching valve determines which position (ON or OFF) the valve is in after GC initialization and after a run is

completed. The default conditions can be changed by selecting Switch vlv defaults from the VALVES menu.
