Stance?

Using a fan, it's possible to chose 2 or 3 options, depending on the speed of rotation. How do you call a particular option you've chosen? Is that a stance? The same for e.g. a shower head. What I want to say is like 'the fan is in ... 2'

That would be called "a three-speed fan, so I'd probably say low speed, medium speed, and high speed. What you call it depends on the particular parameter you're adjusting. Low power, low pressure, low vacuum, etc.
