Yeah I was thinking if you set to max cooling it would keep the monovalve 
closed so any cycling of it would point back toward the control apparatus while 
a steady state at the monovalve points to the monovalve itself.

Nope.  The monovalve modulates the heat by turning on and off.
Although, if it's  in cool-the-cabin mode, maybe it should stay
water-off - which is power-on.
