Yep it was ! so changing the depth to say .5 inch will cause the machine to only cut to half an inch ?
The tech that "trained" me told me this was if your tool height isn't low enough you can go in the minus here and fake a deeper cut.

-12 or -12.2 in your depth field will do what you want.

Caliper your pvc as mm then divide by 2 and make it a negative number. Positive will push it in to the table or spoilboard. The icon shows you negative is off the surface and positive is into the surface.
