Abstract
A valve including a housing, a motor within the housing, and a pinout configuration with an electrical contact. The electrical contact is configured to receive and transmit signals. The valve also includes a motor controller that receives power at the valve, receives a control message, and characterizes the control message as a first type. In response to characterizing the control message as the first type, the motor controller controls the motor to set the valve to a first position in response to determining that the electrical contact is electrically closed and controls the motor to set the valve to a second position in response to determining that the electrical contact is electrically open.
