Your first post only talked about the maximum.
You can calculate this FOM in "analysis group" or "model". I just call it as FOM, you can call it whatever, but in the optimization, this ratio is the target to optimize (maximize). You may write the script inside the optimization ''Figure of merit script'' but the scrip has limited functionality. In other means not all the scripts work there. Please try in "analysis group" or "model", output the result, and in Optimization, just choose this result to optimize.
