LevelPercent shows the percentual value the stacklight is representing. The mandatory EURange Property of the Variable indicates the lowest and highest value and thereby allows to calculate the percentage represented by the value. The lowest value is interpreted as 0 percent, the highest is interpreted as 100 percent.

DisplayMode indicates in what way the percentual value is displayed with the stacklight.

The InstanceDeclarations of the StackLevelType have the Attribute values defined in Table 17.
