Lock or Unlock a Drum

When a drum is locked, it cannot be edited (except to unlock it). In addition, all the cables assigned to drum cannot be edited either.

Drums can be locked and unlocked in bulk. Refer to Bulk Lock and Unlock Drums for further information.

To lock an individual drum, access the Cable Drum Detail window and check the Drum Locked checkbox. Then click OK or Apply. The drum is then locked. All fields, controls etc. in the Cable Drum Detail window (and in the grid) are disabled.

To unlock an individual drum, access the Cable Drum Detail window and check the Drum Locked checkbox. Then click OK or Apply. The drum is then unlocked.
