Commands to slave axes allowed via Epics #44

Move requests to coupled axes should go through the master axis. Working through the NC screen one does not have the option to request a move to a slave axis. However, if one writes to the slave axis PV through epics, the motor uncouple, the move executes, and the slave remains uncoupled. As a first step I should check to see if this is possible through the PLC only by writing to the relevant attributes of a slave DUT_MotionStage.
