Analog valves can show the current valve position on a valve position bar. The bar uses fill animation to show the current value. The value is usually expressed as the valve open percentage and ranges from 0 to 100.
A movable setpoint line can be shown on the valve position bar as the target valve open percentage. A small triangle icon next to the valve position bar represents a commanded value to control the valve open percentage.
