Lock, Protect, and Release

tally.
To lock or unlock MD destinations, select the destinations and press a ‘Destination Lock’

See Lock, Protect, and Release on page 41 .
Destination Mode
The button places the panel in destination mode. Category selections in destination mode
select destination devices. Category buttons that are not configured with destination
categories become disabled.
Categories that include both source and destinations appear in both source mode and
destination mode.
Destination Protect
This button is a toggle that sets or clears a protect on the current destination device. The
protect can be removed at the panel that originally set the protect, at any panel that has
the same user ID, or by a forced release at any panel.
 Note: a protect prevents others from routing to a destination; a lock prevents anyone —
even the user who issued the lock — from routing to the destination.
 You may lock a protected destination, but you cannot change a locked destination to a
protected destination directly. You must first unlock it.
MD Mode
In MD mode, a protected destination has a “P” next to it when it appears in the display.
When you select a protected MD destination with a button, the ‘Destination Protect’ button
goes high-tally.
To protect or unprotect MD destinations, select the destinations and press a ‘Destination
Protect’ button.
X-Y Mode
In X-Y mode, you may protect or unprotect the current destination on each of its levels.
Select the level(s) and press the ‘Destination Protect’ button to perform the protect. Select
protected levels and press the ‘Destination Protect’ button to unprotect them. A protected
level has a “P” next to it when it appears in the display.
