Locking operation flowchart
Buttons on the extenders can be locked by front panel operation or remotely, but the two
ways of locking are not the same. If buttons were locked by a front panel operation, they
can be unlocked by a RICOD unlock command followed by an unlock operation on the
front panel. To better understand the locking sequence, please study
Routers
The routers behave differently because locking the whole front panel is not reasonable.
When the RICOD function is enabled for an output port (see RICOD_SLEN command in
chapter
the output port will be "output locked". This is the same output lock function as described
in the manual of the router. The output lock is reported back by the protocol (is shown in
the control software and in the web) and is displayed on the front panel. The output lock
can be overridden and turned off by protocol or front panel.
If the output lock is enabled for a given port, a remote RICOD command is also able to
turn it off.
Important!
The accepted RICOD command overrides the output lock function. If the RICOD function
is turned on for a given output port, then the output lock condition can be changed
remotely.
