Okay, so I finally got it to accept a Pause At Height instruction. I had to connect to the printer a different way in Cura. If I just told it to "Print via Cloud" to my Digital Factory printer instance, it would ignore all the Pause At Height commands. If I chose the printer via Manage Printers and activated that same printer, and then clicked "Print via Cloud", for some reason it would accept the Print At Height command. I don't see the different between the two? But okay.
But now I have a new problem, which is that when it lowers the build plate during the pause, it goes too far and makes a HORRENDOUS grinding noise. And then when it raises it back up, it doesn't go back up far enough and starts trying to print over mid-air. 😕 So... yeah, if anyone has any idea how to fix this, any help would be hugely appreciated.
Here's a video of what happens right at the pause point when it lowers the build plate too far:

I forgot to mention, but the S7 firmware is 8.1.2 and attached is a copy of the g-code file generated, so you can see the g-code pause instructions are actually making it into the file.
