for the device. Interrupting this operation may damage the
reader.

for the device. Interrupting this operation may damage the
reader.

|
| LockTag(TagFilter, TagLockAction) |
Perform a lock or unlock operation on a tag. The first tag seen
is operated on - the singulation parameter may be used to control
this. Note that a tag without an access password set may not
accept a lock operation or remain locked.
