Executive mode 0 (disabled) — The front panel is fully unlocked. This is the default
setting.
Executive mode 1 (enabled) — The front panel is locked except for input switching,
video freeze, and Auto Image.
Executive mode 2 (enabled) — The front panel is completely locked. This mode can
only be enabled and disabled using SIS commands.
