Resetting Locks

This section describes how to reset locks on iLOQ Manager.

When you reset a physical lock, its state changes from Programmed to Formatted.

Proceed as follows.

Select Basic data > Browse locks.
Select the lock you want to reset.
Right-click the selected lock and select Reset lock.
The Reset a lock wizard is opened.
Select Reset locks.
Check that the correct lock is selected.
Select Next.
Uncheck the Reset locks to factory state check box.
Select Next.
Select how to proceed:
- Leave locks in planning state — Select Leave locks in planning state if you want to leave the locks in the planning state, and program the locks later.
- Order locks — Select Order locks if you want to create the programming task, but execute it later. If you have networked locks, this option will not reset them through the network.
- Order and program locks — Select Order and program locks if you want to create the programming task, and execute it at once for a single lock at hand.
- Order and transfer tasks to programmer — Select Order and transfer tasks to programmer if you want to create the programming tasks, transfer them to the Programmer, and take the Programmer with you to reset the locks at the site. If you have networked locks, this option will not reset them through the network.
  
  Do not select this option, if you are resetting locks to the factory state.
Select Next.
A summary screen is shown.
Select Ready.
Select Close.

The physical lock is now in the Formatted state. The lock definition on iLOQ Manager has remained in the In planning state. If you want to proceed to resetting the physical lock to the Factory state, see Resetting Locks to Factory State. If you want to proceed to deleting the lock row from iLOQ Manager, see Deleting Locks.
