What do I input in the "Motor Configuration" values?

What version of TurboCNC. If version 4, under configure axis, in the scale box, the value is 1/ (steps per rev, usually 200, times microstepping, 8 if set at 1/8, times screw lead(turns per inch)).
If it's belt drive you need to use the distance traveled per motor revolution in stead of screw lead.
