Not sure, but you can add it to the initialization string and run it the first time you press reset.

HI,
If you are using a recent mach release, there is a script that is loaded (if it is present) whenever mach loads a screen set.

For more info get the programmer's ref manual from here
http://machsupport.com/docs/Mach3_V3.x_Macro_Prog_Ref.pdf

and look up ScreenSetLoad.
