MPGEN5AX question about matb

Here is my question can 2 machines be set-up in Mpgen5ax that have X and Y axis mirror of each other. I have set-up the post to do 3 and 5 axis all in one post. It will do the G43 for all 3 axis stuff for the machine if the toollength is less than the povit and our smallest tool holder. It will then exclude the G43 for 5 axis or 3 axis toolpaths intregrated using povit length. I now would like to set-up the post to do both sides of the machine all in one post. I tired using mi and mr as a switch with a if and MPGEN did not like that. I made the post like so but it did not like that either:

 

code:

#Machine base matrix (Base matrix to map positions into)

matb1 : mr7

matb2 : 0

matb3 : 0

matb4 : 0

matb5 : mr7

matb6 : 0

matb7 : 0

matb8 : 0

matb9 : 1

I am open to any thoughts or suggestions.

 

As always I appericate any help or ideas.
