Adding a New Lock for Door, Doors and Drawers

Besides this page (see link below) ... is there a "how-to" or "guide" for adding new locks into MV?

The Olympus Lock Data page goes into some of the aspects you'd need (which I get to a point) ... but looking for more of a step-by-step or guide to achieve the proper way to add a new lock for single door, pair of doors and drawers.

Similar to what is show here for adding a pull:

Or like adding a new slide:

We have a NEW manufacturer and lock configs to add. Very similar to a standard CAM style lock though. Just different bore and lock backset, etc,

I know data needs to go into these places:
  1. LookUpTableLocks
  2. LookUpTableLockPlates
  3. ComboxBox List
  4. Hardware Library 

Just need to know what the Columns in the tables reference what thought. Example: Has Multiple Blocks (0,1 or 2), Double Throw, Hole Diameter all have 1/16" and Strike Thickness all 1/16" ??? Don't understand that ...



The LookUpTableLockPlates makes a little more sense...


And then the COMBO BOX LISTS ... ???
How / where do we add / edit this list??? It doesn't matchup with LookUpTableLock entries??





Then how does the LookUpTableLock and Hardware Library tie together? With like (21) entries in LookUpTableLOCKS and (16) in LookUpTableLOCKPLATES ... there are NUMEROUS Mfgs and Locks in the Hardware Library listed, Along with matching from the ComboBox list. ugh...

Any direction would be helpful!
