Plunge cutting with a milling bit

So I've been doing some plunge cutting with a milling bit. I don't see a check box for this. Should plunge cutting be the same speed as slotting?(assuming DOC matching the diameter of the bit) If not, what is the rule of thumb? thanks.

Hi, Doc will be irrelevant. Just set your WOC and use your Plunge RPM and Plunge Feed values. Regards.
