Go to Configure - Control - Motors and down, between Backlash and Enable delay is a tick for reverse.

Or you mean about keyboard control??

If yes go to Configure - Plugins - Keyboard and change there.

What controller you use, check the controller plugin it may need to change it there. Or maybe you have something wired wrong and work only one direction..
