2WayVlv changing State orientation

All,

Sorry if this has been broached before but I have the standard V8.0 SP1 APL Library. I have a block icon valve that is a 2 way 3 position valve. Position 0 is recirc but the wrong triangles turn green. I am wondering how I can adjust the configuration to show the left and top triangles as green for position 0 vs the top and right triangle shapes that are currently set for position 0. Hope that makes sense. I am hoping there is an easier way to do this.

Thanks,

Josh

Hi trixon21, 

There are few possibilities.

1st, you could study the block in your simulation environment, trigger all the bit and see whether the valve positions of V0 - V1 change or not. 

2nd way is , you could go to the block icon, swapped the V90 and V180 by yourself (my preferred way), name it a new block icon, number "5" , and assign it in you 2WayVlv Block . (the problem is in the faceplate, you could change it too if all the valve in your project behave the same, if not, you might need to have other solutions.)

Last time when i deal with 2 ways valves, the valve actuator is using normal open/close/stop actuator. When the actuator at the field, opened, it goes to 1st direction, and closed, to the 2nd direction. Since it has only opened and closed signals, my takes last time was design a block icon but using back the block VlvPosL for 2 ways valves. For the faceplate, i remain the same. 

Hope it helps. Attached with a screenshot for you to have a better understanding.
