I am not RAMPS board user but I believe F switch control speed. (feed rate)
G1 Z1 F300 for example.

Re: Controlling z-axes speed

G1 Z1 Fxxx is the way I do it at the moment. But how can I define a slow section and a slow section speed?

Re: Controlling z-axes speed

I am planing a better speed control for the next version, currently you can handle the job with command below.

G1 Z1 F{300-([[LayerNumber]]<3)*200}
For the first 2 layers G1 Z1 F100 and remaining G1 Z1 F300 will be used.
