ETC Element fixture default home

Question

Was just in a venue with an ancient ETC element, definitely on a super old version, and there were these moving lights and this mirror ball that were defaulted to positions (I.E. the mirror ball was stuck moving at 17% speed, it was on a dimmer). I could select all the fixtures and bring them all to home, but then when I sneak enter they'd go back to those positions. Not my board of choice so could be a simple fix but I couldn't figure out what to do if anyone has any ideas. 
 
 Thanks!

Sneak will return the values to the background state. So if those channels have been recorded somewhere at 17% and the focus position (possible in a sub somewhere) when you sneak from home they will return in the sneak time (5 sec default). to find out where the channels are getting their data from, you can use about. Select the channel [Enter] then [about] this will display all the info about the channel at that point in time. 
 I hope this helps you out.
