Activation and Deactivation
When a channel is locked, the icon displays a closed lock and the whole window is
dimmed.
You need to click again the Lock button to unlock the channel that you have
locked.
When you unlock a channel on the Control Panel, it remains locked to the other
users. You need to unlock it on the Channel Explorer to make it available to other
users.

This Lock function is not available when using the Software Player.
You cannot use the Lock button, i.e. the button is dimmed, in the following
situations:
• The loaded channel has been locked by another user.
• You do not have the right to lock the loaded channel.
• The Remote Panel has the control on the channel.
• The EVS server to which the channel relates is shut down.

this channel.
