Interacting with system slots does not lock movement

When you interact with component slots (including solar panel mounts) or the status display of a hab system, you can still look and move, being able to walk away from the system with the Datapad left open and remove/replace the component or repair the slot from any distance.

As I recall, previously (prior to 0.61.1) you got locked in place while interacting with anything that cause the Datapad to come up.
