Abstract
Driven lock systems, fenestration units including the driven lock systems, and methods of operating the driven lock systems are described herein. The driven lock systems as described herein offer a combination of powered or motorized operation in addition to manual operation, with the opportunity for a user to manually switch the lock assembly between its locked and unlocked states as needed. The need for manual operation may arise if, for example, the system loses power, the controls of the system are unavailable, etc.
