I bought a Ender 5 S1, 3d printer (without limit switch version), I could be able to asemble it. Every axis works fine, however I cannot make the printing platform move upwards from the GUI.

I can make Y axis and X axis move without any problem.But Z axis moves only down, not up.

I tried to fix it by installing the latest firmware 1.0.7, but it didn't worked.What can I do to debug or fix?
