The Setup Lockout Key Switch input, if used, provides two levels of access to settings and other options, Full and Restricted.

A new project requires the need for Eclipse to be able to override the Key Switch input and control the same two levels of access.

Two new UART commands allow Eclipse to Lock and Unlock as if the Setup Lockout input were locked or unlocked. The are active starting with UART version 3.63.

To handle cases where Eclipse might be down and Key Switch control is required, the Key Switch input can still be used. The controller will keep track of the last source of lock/unlock activity and use the state of that source for the lock state.

If Eclipse wants to be in control of the lock state, Eclipse should set the desired state every time a controller comes online. This will take back control from the Key Switch if it was used while the controller was offline.
