MK4S IS configuration

A couple of Prusa Slicer issues have appeared after the MK4S upgrade from MK4, and I have selected the available printers in the configuration:

1. The Prusa Slicer config no longer includes an IS version for the MK4S, so how is this configured? There appears to be no comparability between the MK4IS and MK4S to indicate it is in IS mode. Perhaps you can give me some guidance.

2. The Wi-Fi update causes a change to the IP address that is not picked up by Connect, so the printer has to be added as new. This also causes other connectivity issues that are resolvable but there is no mention in the guide. It is a bit clumsy, as less IT adept users may find, like me!

3. The printer flags up a n0n-compatible printer message for previously sliced MK4 models, requiring slicing again. Perhaps you can say what the differences that require the re-slicing.

1. I'm not at my computer, but if your choosing the MK4S HF profile it's with input shaping. 

2. Sorry can't help here as I just use the web interface. 

3. The fan is different hardware.  Therefore the cooling is different and needs to be reflected in the G-Code.

RE: MK4S IS configuration

I understand IS is now the default. There may be non-IS configs in the Legacy section of the configuration wizard but I'm not in front of a computer right now to confirm.

Thanks for the replies. It is what I suspected but I hope this is picked up for adjustment to the build instructions, to highlight the differences.
