Charmilles Fl440ccS axes greasing cycle

I have a CHarmilles Fl440ccS Wire EDM machine that runs millennium software. I am in the middle of a job that can't be removed from the tank until it is complete but the alarm F1402 (axes greasing mandatory) has popped up without any warning. The machine will not run a program until the greasing cycle has been run. To run the greasing cycle, I would have to remove the work piece from the machine, which I cannot do without losing my location as the piece has no clean reference points to pick up.

Does anyone know of a way around the greasing cycle? I can run it after this very short program has finished.

Cheers,
Adam
 
I believe changing parameter D1408 from 72 to -1 will disable greasing cycles. May not work when its already mandatory though.
 
I used to run a charmilles and you could start the greasing cycle and stop it after 5 seconds and it’ll cancel the alarm, does your work piece allow that?
