Edit: Just copy the original filename, Chinese and all, to a custom RERF file. It tested fine with the factory tests and also custom test parts I made. I didn’t test with only “R_E_R_F.px6s” as the filename as I proved the original filename works fine with custom models.

Just got a new Anycubic Photon Mono X 6Ks and the RERF file on the included USB has Chinese characters in the name. (“R_E_R_Fchch.px6s” / ch being Chinese characters…) Does the printer require those characters for custom RERF test prints, or is it actually just “R_E_R_F.px6s”?

The documentation is unclear and online searching is jumbled with several issues regarding this filename across different printer models.

    Does it matter? Have you tried running it with the mandarin characters? Is something not working?

      I just let it run without the resin vat and the RERF default print (with the characters) does actually trigger different exposures.

      But yeah, the filename is super important as it triggers a test mode where the plate is exposed at 8 different spots at 8 different times per layer.

      I’ll need to create my own test file and test it with and without the characters. It’s something I can test, but was hoping someone knew off the top of their head. (I was in the middle of my first ever resin print when I banged out this post, actually.)
