However, doing this kind of 'Automation drop-in' can be a potential source of problems.

You punch-in/out some automation data as follows:
The problem here, however, is that the level at the punch-out does not match the original.
When the automation is played back, the result will be:
The level will stay constant after the drop-out point until a fader movement is detected at
which point it will jump abruptly to the new value. A way around this is to enable RETURN.

With judicious setting of the RETURN TIME parameter, the value will 'return' gently to the
original level resulting in a smoother transition.
