operating variable

another translation of "Größe" is "variable. "operating variable" as a phrase gets quite a few G-hits.

This is about resetting the values such as hydraulic pressure, voltage, pneumatic pressure, fuel status, etc to normal values like 2500 psi, 12 V, 60 °C fuel temp, etc.
So, the emergency drill can start from a standard setup.

A translation of "für aktuellen Zustand übliche Betriebsgröße gesetzt" would be "standard (operating) values for actual/momentary conditions".
Variable would be "hydraulic pressure", but the value would be "2,500 psi", etc.
