Material Deposition Fabrication - SlicingStep in APT File

Hello,

I am still working on a postprocessor that is individually customized for a 3D printer we created at the University of Applied Sciences (Trier, germany) and I am currently trying to figure out how the slicing step (choosen in the deposition operation) is written down in the APT file. We need the slicing step to be written down in the APT file so we can use it as a parameter to calculate the volumetric flow rate between two points. By now we put the slicing step into the technological set (2nd screenshot)... it's working, but obviously that is not how it should be done. It seems like there is a way to transfer the slicing step as a parameter (1st screenshot), but I do not get it yet. Hopefully anyone has any ideas on that topic or even knows how to do it the intended way.

Thank You in advance!
