If you're talking about when using the (K)eypad, you set those here or in the MS or VS fill-in sheets.

Otherwise, it's controlled within your part file via tool settings in your tool database.
Make sure you have the proper settings inches per minute or inches per second. If you are set for IPM and set it at 5 or 6, cutting is going to be real slooooooooooowwww. If you are set at IPS, 5 or 6 is going to be a pretty good setting.
Also, make sure your ramp and speed values haven't been corrupted. I just had to fix my local high schools Shopbot speed, ramp and display values by simply resetting those values thru the control software. Now machine behaves properly.
