Mill/Turn with manual angled toolholder. "Error: Direction is not supported for machine configuration."

Hello,

We have a Doosan Puma 2500Y, with a manual angle adjustable tool holder.

I am trying to work out how to post out a program when the tool orientation is not either Z positive or X positive.

Attached is a simple example.

I get error "Error: Direction is not supported for machine configuration." when trying to post out with the Puma post processor.

I get why this would be a good error when using standard tooling, but obviously trying to find a work around.

Posting with the Puma MX post processor gets me code but the G368 I think means I can't trust any of the code below that. As I believe this is a co-ordinate rotation used by machines with a b axis.

Am I correct with this G368 description?

Thanks for any help.

Jack

Inside the post processor find "function defineMachine()", change gotBAxis to true.

It spit this code out after the change:
