Come to think of it, otwincfg might not let you set it to just ON or OFF. But you could do it at the command line - you just can't set up the switching parameters there.
'Active low' reverses the signal. Scripting will change the settings in flash, so yes, it'll take precedence. Or rather, it'll replace those settings entirely. If you're in profile 2 and the script executes 'EXEC POWER 2' the profile 2 power setting will be 2.
