@VIPER-0 so you are saying that TMS UP or
TMS DN locks target?
Depending on the weapon, in most cases, pressing TMS UP one time will soft-lock a target; pressing TMS UP again in this scenario will hard-lock that same target. You’ll wanna refer to the mountain of manuals for details on the use of the Target Management Switch.
These graphics can help, too - depending on whether you are in A-G or A-A mode, of course - these infographics and others can be found in the documentation in the TO 1F-16CMAM-34-1-1 BMS.pdf manual located at "(Your install location)\Falcon BMS 4.37\Docs\02 Aircraft Manuals & Checklists\01 F-16" under the ‘2.1.5 HANDS-ON CONTROLS’ section starting on page 54:

These charts are the heart of the control, it is essential to know them. Yes, for players returning from old Falcon likely find quite a steep relearning the BMS but this is the only way.
EVERYTHING is referred by these 3 “POV hat” main controls and the rest.
