Setting cutting depth

[awemawson]

In Featurecam V9 how the heck do you set how many passes it takes to make a feature. Say I'm milling a slot 10mm deep and I only want to cut 2.5mm per pass, so it needs to make 4 passes. I've found it before but for the life of me I cannot see it now ! I know I can make it do it in a single pass by ticking the 'simple' box, and if unticked Featurecam takes a descision to make multpiple passes but how can I influence how many?

not sure on the v9 but on the new demo it's "Rough pass Z increment"
under the "milling" tab on the slot properties pass #1 just update it and it will add more passes hope it's the same on the older one.
