Airlock is not an Access Point itself but synchronizes multiple Access Points in such a way that only one can provide access at a time. Furthermore, it is capable of controlling the occupation of the lock. When connected to Airlock an Access Point will always ask the Airlock for exclusive rights to provide access. Since Airlock will only grant the exclusive rights to one Access Point at a time and the Access Point will release the exclusive rights after closing the door, only one door can be open at a time. This synchronization function applies to Badge handling, Manual unlock input, Provide access (server). The synchronization function does NOT apply to Emergency unlock input, Automatic unlock schedule, Access control de-activated and unlocked (server).
