Lock Device

What

An iOS device can be locked using FileWave Anywhere.  Locking a device is the same as if you pushed the device lock button locally.  If no passcode exists, the device can be unlocked without one.  If a passcode exists, it is required to unlock the device.

When/Why

We often use this command internally just to test that command functionality is working.  With device in hand, if you send this command you should see the device lock momentarily. 

How

Use the ellipsis () to the right of the device in the View - Devices and select "Lock Device"
