hmmm ... I thought I only need the AutoDeviceLockTimeout, so I set that to 0 and rebooted. No go. So I did the other edit and rebooted.
When I press DeviceLock.exe, it goes to lock screen and then about 5 seconds later it dims and then 3 seconds it goes out.
EDIT: though that AutoDeviceLockTimeout does control the number of seconds till display goes out if you lock it by holding down the End key and pressing "Lock Device". So what is the difference between that and \Windows\LockDevice.exe?
