This property enables or disables the drive. The property encapsulates operation of drive status bit 15, and causes an active disable of the drive when set to 0. The softMC interpreter is held until the requested state is actually achieved on the drive.

0 (OFF) - Drive disable
1 (ON) - Drive enable

For axis - When the drive is disabled, the motion controller of that axis is in a following mode, so the command follows the feedback. A message is generated by the softMC that the axis is now in following mode. Motion commands are not allowed when the drive is disabled.
