Need help with ProtoTrak on my Bridgeport

$

Just got a Bridgeport that has the original ProtoTrak on it (uses tape drive). Downloaded the manual and trying it out. I'm trying to figure out how to mill a box as I have to do several of these as inserts on a woodworking project. Been playing around trying to figure it out and can't so wondering if someone could help. If I had an example of how to do consecutive mill cuts it would be easier but the manual isn't clear on how to do that, or at least I can't figure it out. The small box dimension is 1.75" x 1.25", using a .25" cutter and the cut begins at 0,0, and wanting the cutter on the inside so that is option 2.

Any help or pointing me in the proper area is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
