Richard,

you can set a Z move speed with 'MS' command fill-in sheet and the latest SB3 control software will remember it.

What I think you're looking for is to pre-set plunge speed (Z move speed) of tools in your CAM package(s) tool data base. Look for tool data base in you favorite(s) CAM then configure the tool(s)s' plunge speed you used the most.

That should be it.
