Makerverse Z-Axis Calibration issue

I will start by saying that I don’t have your MetalMaslow set up, but from all my reading here on the forums, and working on my own Meticulous Z axis, I know if you command it to go down, and it moves up, you need to change the “-/+” sign in your pitch (raw Z-axis - again I don’t use Makerverse). so if you have -918.75 and it went up instead of down, the logic to me would say make it 918.75 and see if it moves in the right direction.

After that, I use the following error calculation method from the Meticulous Z post (Comment #618) to get the Z-travel dialed in:

To calculate the movement error:

E = D2 / D1

Where:

E = Error

D2 = Distance the carriage actually moved D

1 = Distance the carriage was requested to move

To calculate the corrected setting:

C = Z * E

Where:

C = Corrected Z-Axis mm/rev

Z = Z-Axis mm/rev from the test

E = Error

I hope this helps out a bit, and good luck!
