Incident field without accounting for the planar layered medium

When I use an incident plane wave excitation along with a planar layered background medium, I receive a message saying that the excitation will account for reflections from the layered substrate. Is it possible to turn this feature off, so that the incident field does not take the layered substrate into account? Basically, I'd like the incident field to impinge on my structure as though there is no layered background medium, but the rest of the computation to proceed as usual, utilizing the multilayer Green's function etc.

If not, is there a workaround that can emulate the desired situation?

Thank you.

    I think there is no way to selectively exclude the effect of the planar layered medium on the plane wave source as long as the medium exists in the Feko simulation.

    Maybe if your Feko file could be shared, it would be helpful to think about a possible workaround.

    Thank you.
