Dynamic control of probe absorption spectrum via vortex beams in multilevel systems has attracted much attention because it provides an avenue to observe unique transport properties. In this paper, we employ experimentally accessible parameters to flexibly control the probe absorption spectrum that shows vortex-induced transparency (VIT) and absorption (VIA) phenomena. Specifically, this system can be served as an optical switch while the vortex beams can act as the control knob, which has the ability to switch from a transparency dip to an absorption peak. Differing from a conventional electromagnetically induced transparency technique, our proposed scheme investigates VIT and VIA by tuning the orbital angular momentum of vortex beams in the resonance and non-resonance cases. Moreover, the collective feature caused by constructive or destructive interference is also studied via adjustable frequency detuning. Our results may provide an efficient approach to study similar phenomena in multilevel quantum systems driven by optical vortex beams.
