Mechanism for controller to allow a local interface to request local control. Control implies in this case the ability to change the state or behavior of the axis. Possible values:
- Not Allowed (0) - Configures the device to prevent a local interface from taking control of the drive.
- Conditionally Allowed (1) - Configures the device to prevent a local interface from taking control of the axis while the axis is in an Operational State, such as Running or Testing.
- Allowed (2) - Configures the device to allow a local interface to take control of the axis, even in an Operational State. Some devices may not support this state.
