What you're asking for is probably not what you want. Putting the system in disabled mode will certainly shut down the PWMs, along with the relay outputs. That's the whole purpose of disabled mode.

I think what you want to know is how to put it in autonomous mode and have it actually provide outputs. For that, you need to connect to the competition port and close a switch between the proper pins. See the Competition Port Pinout Guide (it's on the OI section of the IFI Robotics web site).
