    Hi
    With MachScreen you must create a button "Multipass" and select execute basic-script here the script
    (Rem Context 10002
    repeats = Question ("How many iterations?")
    depth = Question ("Maximum depth in first pass?")
    perpass = Question ("Amount to drop on each pass?")

    SetOEMDro 80, depth
    SetOEMDro 78, repeats
    SetOEMDro 79, perpass
    DoOEMButton 218
    Message "Press Cycle/Start to Begin")

    you must create and other Visus "repetition number" code oem 78
    and a second Visus "Z increment" code oem 79
    and a third Visus " Z limits" code oem 80

    tats all

    good lock
