i’m very cautious with using these settings as you have never used them yourself. Where did you find these settings? How are they different from the 1.1.7 defaults?
It collection of parameters from this post about Vertex Curaengine.
But only the once I could match. So finetuning is still needed.

Do NOT use these settings. As described in that post they were NOT the correct ones.

I have now removed the old paramiter set and replaced them with Cura set from latest Vertex slicer

Here are results of manual matching Cura parameters to MAC Slicer . Still not tested due to printer waiting for parts.

that’s fine I guess. There isn’t a big blue “Vertex 3D Printer” text. I can live with that. I can connect to the printer. I can home the axes under manual control. I can move the bed down to 100 mm, but not more than that (probably because the printer shape under printer settings is set to 100 mm???). The home 70-462
position is 200/200/0 as shown on the LCD but 0/0/0 as shown in repetier. When I try to move the Y-axis -10 mm in repetier it actually does this. But repetier still shows 0/0/0 whereas the LCD shows 200/190/0. And after the initial -10 mm it will not move anymore. I can always move the axis manually using the rotary encoder/LCD. Maybe I need to align the X/Y rods? Just strange that it always works using the LCD/rotary enoder.
