When the pushbuttons are created, have the first one be set to 'enable', 'on', and the others set to 'enable', 'off'. Then in the callback for the first push button, if the circumstances are appropriate, set() 'enable', 'on' for the other 4 buttons.

If you are using GUIDE:
When your editing your GUI, double click on the component to get the property inspector. In it, set the 'Enable' property to 'off'. Do this for all the components that you want disabled initially. You can also do this in the create callback function of the components.
Now in the Callback function of the first button, set the Enable property of the remaining four buttons to 'on'.
