Machine going wrong direction

[Sdwooster]

I have a CNC router that's going up instead of down on Z . And also isn't moving the proper distance as well. I have changed the controller board to a planet- cnc board. I also think the X and Y are doing the same. But I guess it depends how the machine is positioned.

For direction open Settings -> Motors and check reverse for any axis that moves in wrong direction.
For proper distance you need to calculate your distance from microstepping driver settings and screw pitch.
Example 1600 steps with 5mm screw pitch will be 1600 / 5 = 320
The result need to be set in Settings -> Motors -> StepPerUnit for each motor.
