The AXISCAL_STATUS identifies, the status on a specific axis, if
axis calibration is enabled. This item is returned as a integer that
must be interpreted as a bit pattern. Convert this items returned
integer value to a bit pattern to interpret which axes have axis
calibration enabled. A one in any bit indicates axis calibration is
enabled for that axis. The first bit (right most) representing axis 1.
A zero in any bit indicates axis calibration is disabled. The
maximum number of bits representing axes is the maximum
configured number of program axes plus any deskew slaves.

axis calibration enabled (00000000100).
