Locking and Unlocking I/E Stations

The locking and unlocking import/export (I/E) station operation enables you to lock or unlock I/E station doors. These instructions focus on the library web client method of locking and unlocking I/E station doors. Locking or unlocking I/E station doors using the library web client may affect your host application.

If all I/E stations are configured as storage slots, this operation unlocks or locks only the control module I/E station door. Once the control module I/E station door is unlocked, you can open the access door on the module, which then unlocks all remaining I/E station doors in the library configuration.

Users with administrative privileges can lock and unlock I/E stations, but users with user privileges cannot.
