Default When does evap purge valve open?

d16y8 obd2a

Just fixed my evap purge valve since it was stuck open and wouldn't close or open correctly since it has charcoal stuck in there.

Now my question is:

Is the valve suppose to open right after I turn the car on or after driving and building pressure on the fuel tank? Thanks!

Thanks! Thats what I needed to know.
I checked the purge valve and worked fine off the car but when I turned the car it never opened, Now I now why since you gotta let it warm up.

As long as the cel I had doesn't come back i should be good
