NX10.0 - CAM - Machining Simulation Problem

NX10.0 - CAM - Machining Simulation Problem

NX10.0 - CAM - Machining Simulation Problem

(OP)
Hello,
If someone could explain me how to move machining objects with correct positioning on machine table with reference to machining simulation control panel.
a) when i type visualization as : Tool Path Simulate >> the machine is working properly
b) when i type visualization as : Machine Code Simulate >> the machine is not working properly
The milling head is working in the unknow distance from original tool path.
I was trying many methods by changing coordinate system in machine tool navigator (MACHINE BASE / SETUP:part;blank;fixture) according to my MCS.
But still no positive effect...

In operation navigator, when i click on the GEOMETRY tab (geometry view >> watch on top) I see some diferent coordination system than MCS (dont know what it is).
I attach a picture as appendix to this issue.

Best regards

Hi again,
Problem is almost solved.
It turns out that in NX 8.5 milling tool moves along the path correctly in simulation (Animation : Machine Code Simulate).
For display my issue - watch Attachment

What is the problem? Why in NX10.0 in same .prt file and same 3axis CNC + postprocessor as NX8.5 , machine is going on crazy position...
Some internal NX options, customers deafults?

In Nx8.5 everyhthing works fine

I don't see anything obvious to explain it.
Please log a call with GTAC so that they can look at the details.
