Hi Troels, To help with the implementation, I would recommend that parameter scaling is turned off as that might make the covariance matrix calculations more difficult. Once the covariance matrix diagonal matches the Monte Carlo simulations (well the square root of the diagonal elements to convert from variances to standard deviations), then turn on the parameter scaling and see if the errors are still correct.
