Ahh, the joys of the Chinese machine controller. Sounds like they have one of the motor windings reversed.
Now I don’t know how best to describe this to you but your Z axis stepper motor has two windings A-A1 and B-B1 it doesn’t matter which (A or B) but you need to swap the connection of say A-A1 to make them A1-A. This will make the motor rotate in the opposite direction for the original command (do not swap an A with a B).
Does that make sense ??
