I'm not an expert, but maybe it is because your analog output is associated with a given axis/joint,
If you remove the axis, so that it is not controlled by the motion controller, may be it is possible to set the value as you intend. In this case the given motion.analog-out-00 is not "hal-wired" to anything and you cahange the value of whatever input pin was attached to previously to motion.analog-out-00 Not sure if this will fulfill your needs.
