Router tool height question

I have a 1/4" tool on our Northwood that I am using to perform a simple one pass route. Looking at the 3d of the cabinet I can see that the dado is there. And the machine operator said it did perform the function it just didn't go into the wood. Should I be looking specifically at the height offset for the tool? And how would I figure the correct tool offset for it? The depth of the dado I want to achieve is 1/4" deep. I am including the tool info and token for the dado.  Thanks!
