WinVNC Advanced Settings Question

In reviewing the Advanced Settings for WinVNC, with hopes of understanding more still lingering, I came upon the simple looking LockSetting. My question is "...what is value 2 - logoff and disconnect indicating?". Is the logoff and disconnect action being taken between the VNC server and viewer?
