Abstract
A method for operating a lockset generally includes transmitting an unlock command to an electronic actuator in response to receiving an unlock signal. In response to receiving the unlock command, the electronic actuator performs a first operation, including moving a holdback from a release position to a hold position. In response to actuation of a manual actuator, a latchbolt is moved from an extended position to a retracted position. The holdback in the hold position retains the latchbolt in the retracted position.
