FP [<mask>] Front Panel Lockout
The value of <mask> becomes a front panel lockout mask. The useful range is 0 through
8191. Each bit of the mask disables a particular button; if the bit is "1" the button is
disabled; if "0", enabled. The mask defaults to 0 (all buttons enabled) if <mask> is omitted,
and also at power up and IN.

Use caution when disabling the STOP button. The external Emergency Stop switch input
also becomes disabled, so the only way to stop the motors in an emergency situation is to
press RESET or turn off the power switch. (Under some circumstances you may need to
temporarily disable STOP in order to automatically resume a move sequence. See the CS
command for an example.)
Bit 10 locks out the interrupts (i.e. triggering of Download Sequences) that can be caused by
FAST/PAUSE, FAST/TEACH, the GO button, and transitions on the Digital Inputs, as
described in Chapter 8. Bit 11 locks out motor slip detection by the optional Step Verify
circuit.
If the GO TO ORIGIN button is disabled the Manual Re-reference sequence (invoked via
FAST/GO TO ORIGIN) will also not work. Similarly, if the PAUSE or TEACH button is
disabled, the corresponding Download Sequence (0 or 1) cannot be invoked via
FAST/PAUSE or FAST/TEACH.
