Linda Rugaas has effectively explained the different situations in which the hand signal can be used with dogs. She uses the the hand signal to tell the dog:

I’ve got this
Take it easy
You’ve had enough
Wait a second
Don’t do this, please
I’ll be back
Don’t worry
For example, if you have a dog at home who excessively barks when guests come home, you can use the hand signal to tell him that you are aware of the situation and will take over so he can relax.
