Adjusting the Z-speed for V-Core 4.0 IDEX using RatOS 2.1

Hi everyone, I’m seeking assistance in adjusting the z-speed of my V-core 4 IDEX printer. I’d like to limit the z-speed to only 10 at all functions. I’ve noticed that the z-homing speed is set to 10 in RatOS.cfg or printer.cfg, but I’m not sure which one. It doesn’t seem to be related to the z-tilt (z movement) speed or the manual z-moving speed, which I’m believing it’s set higher than 10. This higher speed causes my printer to shake heavily, which I suspect is due to a slightly misaligned lead screw. Interestingly, the shaking sound stops when the printer moves the z-axis at a lower speed, such as during homing. Therefore, I’m looking for a way to adjust the z-speed to prevent this shaking.
Solution:
I’ve discovered the solution by overriding the max_z_velocity and max_z_accel values in the printer.cfg file.

I came across this in the document “variable_macro_z_speed.” Is this value also applicable to Z-Tilt?
