Hi @jose-soto
How do you have your drives wired?
From the photo it looks like you are using differential wiring but each axis leaves MASSO in 2 cables, one for step and the other for direction but they arrive at the drive in a single cable and use different color wires.
This doesn't make any sense especially as the wire between MASSO and the drive is so short.
Cheers Peter

Hi Jose,
Your drives are differential drives so you are best to connect them in differential mode.
The page below shows how to connect drive such as yours in differential mode.

The Enable does not need to be connected to get your axis moving but you may wish to connect them later through an Estop relay to disable the motors in an emergency.
It is best to worry about that later when you have the motors turning.
cheers Peter

Jose,
Check that the voltage on the direction connections changes when you move from + to -

Hi Jose,
Before you look at different drives and motors can we do some testing please.
I am concerned that you may have damaged the axis outputs on MASSO with your initial wiring or you may simply have settings wrong in your axis configuration, both of which can casue the one direction movement you are seeing.
Can you start by sharing a copy of your printable settings file please.
